LV-EZ0 Ultrasonic Sensor
This is the fantastically easy to use sensor from?Maxbotix. We are extremely pleased with the size, quality, and ease of use of this little range finder. The serial interface is a bit odd (it’s RS232 instead of standard TTL), but the PWM and Analog interfaces will allow any micro to listen easily enough. The sensor provides very accurate readings of 0 to 255 inches (0 to 6.45m) in 1 inch increments with little or no dead zone!

VL53L0X Laser Distance Sensor
The VL53L0X is a time of flight distance sensor containing a very tiny invisible laser source and a matching detector. Since this sensor uses a very narrow light source, it is good for determining distance of only the surface directly in front of it. The VL53L0x is much more precise and doesn’t have linearity problems or ‘double imaging’ when compared with ultrasonic or infrared distance sensors.

MPU6050 – 6 DOF IMU
The MPU-6050 is a serious little piece of motion processing tech! By combining a MEMS 3-axis gyroscope and a 3-axis accelerometer on the same silicon die together with an onboard Digital Motion Processor (DMP ) capable of processing complex 9-axis MotionFusion algorithms, the MPU-6050 does away with the cross-axis alignment problems that can creep up on discrete parts.

BNO055 – 9 DOF Absolute Fusion IMU
If you’ve ever ordered and wire up a 9-DOF sensor, chances are you’ve also realized the challenge of turning the sensor data from an accelerometer, gyroscope and magnetometer into actual “3D space orientation”! Orientation is a hard problem to solve. The sensor fusion algorithms (the secret sauce that blends accelerometer, magnetometer and gyroscope data into stable three-axis orientation output) can be mind-numbingly difficult to get right and implement on low cost real time systems.
