What’s in the Box? – Sensors Case

We are looking at our sensors case today. It’s also a bit disorganized. This is a collection of sensors taken from old robots, KOPs, and things we purchased as well. Some it is just used for testing or to lend out at events in case another team needs something. 
Encoders and Encoder Cables

Ultrasonic Sensors
Gyros, accelerometers, and IMUs

Hall Effect and Inductive Proximity Sensors
Potentiometers

Light sensors, IR sensors, & IR range sensors
Limit Switches and Buttons
USB Hubs and CNC limit switch
We also keep breakers, 12v-5v DC-DC converters, jumpers, and some other cabling in the case.
