Raspberry Pi Sense HAT for the Pi 3/2/B+/A+ Model
Raspberry Pi Sense HAT for the Pi 3/2/B+/A+ Model is a sensor-packed add-on to your Raspberry Pi 3, 2, B+ and A+ boards. It mounts right on top of your Raspberry Pi and all you need to do is run your code.
Raspberry Pi Sense HAT has integrated sensors that can measure temperature, humidity, acceleration, pressure and 3D orientation. Also, you get an 8×8 LED matrix for displaying data read through all these sensors. Writing programs for the Sense HAT are very simple with a Python library available to get started quickly and easily.
The 8×8 LED Matrix enables you to display the data from the various sensors, it can show you which way is geomagnetic North by programming a compass using the magnetometer or simply be used to play games like Tetris, Pong, and Snake with the joystick. The joystick can also be used to enable a human user to interact with the programs running on the Raspberry Pi Sense HAT.
Writing programs for the Sense HAT are very simple with a Python library available to get started quickly and easily. For a truly out of world projects check out the AstroPi website, containing a host of ideas and instructions.
The Sense HAT has an 8×8 RGB LED matrix, a five-button joystick and includes the following sensors:
