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 →Take your Arduino projects to the next level with the UNO R4 Development Board, the latest generation of the iconic UNO platform. Powered by the Renesas RA4M1 32-bit Arm® Cortex®-M4 microcontroller running at 48 MHz, the UNO R4 delivers significantly higher performance, increased memory, and advanced peripherals while maintaining the familiar UNO form factor and 5V compatibility with most existing Arduino shields.
Choose between two versions to match your project requirements:
UNO R4 Minima – A powerful standalone development board featuring enhanced processing, built-in DAC, CAN Bus, HID support, and expanded memory for general embedded applications.
UNO R4 WiFi – Includes all the features of the Minima plus an ESP32-S3 coprocessor for Wi-Fi® and Bluetooth® connectivity, a built-in 12×8 LED matrix, and a Qwiic® connector, making it ideal for IoT, cloud-connected, and wireless projects.
Whether you're building robotics, automation systems, smart home devices, data loggers, or educational projects, the UNO R4 offers improved performance while preserving the ease of use that has made Arduino the world's most popular development platform.
