Smart Bar with Sensors & PCB

Sensors Adding with the Smart Bar PCB and Expansion Slots Bar

Looking for a way to mount your sensors without having a wire mess and have it look great on your desk. The Smart Bar gives you a clean expandable designed cabinet for a variety of sensor types and sizes. At the same time you can daisy chain multiple Smart Bars together to increase the number of sensors.

The SmartBar also allows you to have a second OLED display, to display sensor data via your Windows or Mac custom application. This allows you to display in real-time sensor data to a secondary display. This can also work with the ModelC display to have a coordinated GUI experience.

SmartBar Case with various GPIO and I2C Sensors

The SmartBar PCB has 5 I2C Bus Headers and 4 GPIO headers to allow you to connect up to 8 different sensors to the PCB, along with LED power light and 5V & 3.1V power pins with grounds.

The SmartBar uses expansion plates along the SmartBar, to allow you to screw in sensors, and arrange the placement of these sensors.

LiveCopper also provides .STL file to allow you to print your own plates, or build custom plates for custom sensors. You can see the sensor plate forums at:

https://livecopper.com/community/

Where you can upload, share and download your own STL files for printing sensor plates.

SmartBar sensor plates which screw into the SmartBar Case

6 Sensor plates are provided with every SmartBar.

Two touch plates for touch sensors
Two OLED display plates, a horizontal and vertical plate. (The SmartBar has a stand for Vertical and Pads For Horizontal Placement)
BMP 280 plate Temperate, Barametric Pressure and Altitue Sensor
Infrared Motion Sendor Plate

The SmartBar also will mount a 120volt/240 volt (15amp) GPIO relay, which can be used to switch desktop power off/on. The SmartBar has a rear port to allow a power chord to run into the SmartBar.

Lorem Ipsum

Why do we use it?

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page hen looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).

Where does it come from?

Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of “de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum” (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, “Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..”, comes from a line in section 1.10.32.

The standard chunk of Lorem Ipsum used since the 1500s is reproduced below for those interested. Sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 from “de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum” by Cicero are also reproduced in their exact original form, accompanied by English versions from the 1914 translation by H. Rackham.
