Silly Job Title: Bench Master. I am the Bench Master!
In this video we take a look at the HW-028 Rain Drops sensor module: Separate PCB Board Raindrop Module Sensor Rising Water Level Detection Module Raindrop Sensor Board. Project doco is here: HW-028.
We found some instructions and tutorials, including these:
- Arduino – Rain Sensor – Servo Motor
- Arduino Modules – Rain Sensor
- Rain drop Sensor Module
- How to use the Raindrop Sensor Module
Also we noted the use of the LM393 comparator on the module.
