The words “metal detector” sparks to mind images of combing the beach for hidden treasure or waving around handheld detectors at security stops. Metal-detector technology is found often in our daily lives from security to leisurely uses, however, the applications of these fun Sensors are endless when combined with the imagination of Makers. DIY kits like this MDS-60 DIY Metal Detector Module Kit offer us the opportunity to integrate metal detection into our own project designs!

This easy-to-assemble MDS-60 DIY Metal Detector Module Kit will provide you with a metal detection module operating at 3V to 5V with a 60mm detection distance. A buzzer and light will trigger in the presence of metal, alerting you with high-performance accuracy and assuring no needle in the haystack could hide from you now. The MDS-60 DIY Metal Detector Module is a non-contact sensor board, meaning simply hovering over a metal object will set it off. The sensor can pass through obstructing materials like bags, clothing, and even human skin. You can play with multiple applications, from bestowing Robotics with the power of metal detection or exploring the uses of a metal proximity switch.

The MDS-60 DIY Metal Detector Module Kit also provides a wonderful learning experience and introduces beginners to working with a PCB, while ending up with a handy detection device. Online resources and guides already exist to help you level up your Maker skills in soldering and combining small Electronic Components to create unique functional devices. That’s why we enjoy stocking Electronics Kits that can be expanded on and improved with extra modules like the MDS-60 DIY Metal Detector Module Kit, allowing you to tinker with all the fun electronics features you want.
