Arduino Modulino - Intelligent I2C Modules

Modulino are intelligent I2C modules from Arduino. Today, we’ll see how easy they are to use with C++ and MicroPython.

Arduino’s Modulino modules are a series of sensors and actuators that communicate via I2C. These intelligent modules are easy to work with thanks to their Qwiic connectors and libraries for both C++ and MicroPython.

There are currently a dozen of these little modules: buttons, joysticks, sensors, and displays. Even more “exocitic” stuff like latching relays and haptic feedback drivers! All of them connected via Qwiic connectors and coded with a single library that handles all the modules.

Today, we will take a look at these modules and demo them using both C++ and MicroPython. You’ll see how easy it is to use tshese intelligent devices in your next project, with or without an Arduino microcontroller.
