This kit flips that: you'll characterise a light-dependent resistor, thermistor, strain gauge, and BMP280 pressure sensor in one go, plotting resistance vs light intensity, temperature, strain, and pressure - just as the lab manual demands, but with a modern Arduino Nano interface and an AI companion to guide you through every measurement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat You'll Build\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou'll wire each sensor to the Arduino Nano, read analog and digital values, and generate graphs that show how each sensor's resistance changes with the physical quantity it measures.
