Range highlights - sensors commonly in stock

We maintain core robotics sensor categories so you can assemble sensing systems quickly: proximity and distance sensors, IMUs (accelerometers/gyros), encoders, infrared line sensors, ultrasonic modules, light and colour sensors, and current/voltage monitoring sensors. For a full category browse, visit our robot sensors Collections page.

Explore sensor categories to see live SKUs and accessory bundles that speed up prototyping.

Specification callouts and compatibility guidance

Not all sensors are plug-and-play. Check voltage, interface (I2C, SPI, UART, analogue), and sampling rate before you buy. Below is a quick spec comparison to help match sensors to common robotics roles.

Sensor TypeTypical InterfaceBest For
Ultrasonic (HC-SR04)Digital trigger/echoObstacle avoidance, simple distance
Time-of-Flight (VL53L0X)I2CShort-range precision distance
IMU (MPU-6050)I2COrientation, balance, dead reckoning

If you need help matching a sensor to a motor controller, microcontroller (Arduino, Raspberry Pi, ESP32) or single-board computer, our product pages include pinouts and common wiring notes. See our Shop by Brand page for specific modules and trusted manufacturers.

Browse brands stocked locally for compatibility guidance and alternate options.
