8-in-1 Sensor Comparison Kit - LDR to Hall Effect
8-in-1 Sensor Explorer Lab Kit - Compare LDR, Thermistor, IR, Touch, Tilt, Reed & Hall Sensors on One Breadboard
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Turn your classroom into a sensor laboratory. This kit places eight distinct sensing elements on a single half breadboard, letting students wire, test and contrast LDRs, a thermistor, an infrared pair, a microphone, touch pads, a tilt switch, a reed switch and a Hall effect sensor all in one 90-minute session. It's the practical way to move from theory to observation without hunting for loose components.
What You'll Build
Your students will assemble a multi-sensor testbed where every block responds to a different physical quantity. They will bias an LDR for light, balance a thermistor in a voltage divider, pulse an IR LED and read the photodiode, power a condenser mic through a transistor amplifier, detect body touch on copper pads, trigger a tilt-switch circuit, activate a reed switch with a magnet and measure a Hall effect sensor's output-all using common resistors and transistors. At the end they will have a single board that demonstrates eight working sensor principles side by side.
What You'll Learn
- How resistive sensors like LDRs and thermistors change voltage in a divider
- Building a basic IR transmitter-receiver pair and seeing the invisible signal
- Amplifying a condenser mic output with a BC547 transistor stage
- Differentiating contact sensors (touch, tilt, reed) from field sensors (Hall effect)

Who This Kit Is For
Designed for CBSE Class 9-10 science practicals, ATL Tinkering Lab explorations, and B.Tech ECE/EEE first-year sensor labs. It gives students a single-session way to compare eight transducer principles, making it ideal for smart classroom demonstrations and STEM workshops across schools and junior colleges.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project - accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Scan the QR code on your kit box to start a conversation with the AI companion trained for this sensor board. If you need a human hand, our support team is on WhatsApp five days a week.
Can I run all eight sensors at once?
Yes, the half breadboard lets you wire all sensing circuits simultaneously, each with its own bias resistors and transistor stages where needed. Two 9V batteries provide enough current to keep everything active during comparison.
Does this kit require a microcontroller or computer?
No. Every circuit is built with discrete components. Students observe sensor behaviour through LED indicators and the transistor amplifier output, so they learn the electronics without any coding.
Is it suitable for a single student or a pair?
The kit works beautifully for two students working as a lab pair. Duplicate sensor components mean both can build, test and compare results side by side on the same breadboard.
Solar - 8 different sensors on one breadboard - LDR, thermistor, IR, sound, touch, tilt, reed switch and Hall effect. Compare all in one session.
