The SensorCape is an add-on cape for the BeagleBone Black that adds a large variety of sensors. This is a great way to add some external sensing capability to your next project. Devices included are:

• 3-axis accelerometer
• 3-axis gyroscope
• 3-axis compass
• Humidity sensor
• Pressure sensor
• Ambient light sensor
• Ambient temperature sensor
• Non-contact temperature sensor
• 38kHz IR Sensor (interfaces with common commercial devices)
• 4 orange user configurable LED's
• 4 tactile switches for conventional user interface

Best of all, the majority of these sensors are interfaced using I2C which means that there are still plenty of GPIO pins available for other capes. Those that are not on the I2C bus can be physically disconnected in hardware, allowing for a very flexible range of configurability.
