Fingerprint Sensor AS608 - A Beginner's Guide
One touch can replace keys. This project uses an optical fingerprint sensor to enroll users and then grant access with a quick scan.
read tutorial →This is the assembled version of the Pi T-Cobbler Plus. It only works with the Raspberry Pi Model A+/B+/Pi 2/Pi 3!
The Raspberry Pi B+, Pi 2 and Pi 3 have landed on the Maker World like a 40-GPIO pinned, quad-USB ported, credit card sized bomb of DIY joy. And while you can use most of our great Model B accessories by hooking up our downgrade cable, its probably a good time to upgrade your set up and accessorize using all of the Model B+'s, Pi 2's and Pi 3's 40 pins.
That's why we now carry the Assembled Adafruit Pi T-Cobbler Plus - Breakout + Cable for Raspberry Pi B+/Pi 2 / Pi 3. This Cobbler is in a fancy T-shape, which is not as compact, but is a little easier to read the labels. We also have the more compact original Cobbler Plus.
The T-Cobbler Plus is an add on prototyping board from Adafruit specifically designed for the B+, Pi 2 and Pi 3 that can break out all those tasty power, GPIO, I2C and SPI pins from the 40-pin header onto a solderless breadboard. This set will make "cobbling together" prototypes with the Pi super easy.
Each order comes with a 40 pin ribbon cable and assembled T-Cobbler Plus. You can plug the 40-pin GPIO cable between the Pi computer and the T-Cobbler breakout. The T-Cobbler can plug into any solderless breadboard (or even a prototyping board like the PermaProto). The T-Cobbler PCB has all the pins labeled nicely so you can go forth and build circuits without keeping a pin-out printout at your desk. We think this will make it more fun to expand the Pi and build custom circuitry with it.
Designed for use with Raspberry Pi Model A+/B+/Pi 2/Pi 3 only. No soldering required!
The Raspberry Pi B+ / Pi 2 / Pi 3, solderless breadboard, breadboarding wires, cables, components, power supply, etc are not included! We do stock many of those items in the shop, so check those out as well!
