Gravity: Capacitive Soil Moisture Sensor is ideal for environmental science courses and indoor gardening applications. Operating within a voltage range of 3.3 to 5.5V, this sensor provides an analog output of 1.2 to 2.5V, making it compatible with low-voltage MCUs, including both 3.3V and 5V logic systems, allowing for easy integration with popular platforms such as Arduino and Raspberry Pi. It features a waterproof detection area, effectively measuring soil moisture levels while resisting corrosion for reliable performance in outdoor and controlled environments. The capacitive design offers 2-3 times the lifespan of resistive sensors, ensuring long-term durability and dependable monitoring.
This detector is compatible with our 3-pin "Gravity" interface, which means it can be directly connected to the Gravity I/O Expansion Shield.
