  • Breadboard: A temporary circuit connection tool. Used to connect components without soldering.
  • LED (Light Emitting Diode): A small light emitting different colors (red, green, blue, yellow, white) when powered. Indicating different statuses in a project.
  • Resistor: Controls electrical current flow, slowing it down, preventing component damage.
  • Tactile Button: A small switch triggering on/off states.
  • Jumper Wires: Connect components to the breadboard or Arduino. Carry electricity between parts.
  • Piezo Buzzer: A small speaker-like device that emits sound when electricity flows through it. Commonly used for alarms or alerts.
  • Servo Motor: Rotates to a specific position, controlling things like arms, wheels, or doors. Provides precise movement.
  • 9V Battery and 9V Battery Terminal (with Barrel Connectors): Provides power to the project. Connects to the Arduino.

Sensors and Motors
