The shield can be configured to send GPS and sensor data from devices attached to an I2C bus to remote servers, or a really cool COSM server.

The SW-420 Vibration Sensor will detect large disturbances and send the data to the Arduino. The occurrence and strength (Intensity) of the vibrations will be displayed on an LCD screen.

A spring vibration sensor is a simple device that can be used as a poor man’s accelerometer, or simply to detect vibration.

Arduino has two new boards out which deliver connectivity - the Arduino MKR WAN 1300 (LoRa) and the Arduino MKR GSM 1400.
