Accessories
|
MakingThings also offers a selection of sensors and actuators designed to work well with the Make Controller.
All accessories are fully assembled and ready to use straight out of the box - no wiring or soldering required. Simply screw them in and you're ready to play.
Otherwise, the Make Controller works with most standard sensors - because there are no custom connectors, just screw in your devices and you're ready to go.
