Description
| The Weight Shield is an electronic board designed to be used together with an Arduino board and an external load cell (not included). This board lets you build a custom digital scale that reads the weight of the object placed on the load cell.
The shield carries an 8-character by 2-line LCD display, which shows the weight in real time along with other useful information. The Weight Shield is designed to be easy to use and to set up, even for users with little experience in programming and electronics. This board is ideal for anyone who wants to build a custom scale for home or professional use, for example to weigh food or materials in the lab. Thanks to its flexibility and to the scope for customisation, the Weight Shield opens up many creative and practical possibilities for Arduino users.
