Sensor Development Boards and Kits are small boards produced by integrated circuit device manufacturers to allow engineers to evaluate a sensor they manufacture. They are also used to accelerate development of products by enabling rapid prototyping of design. They may sometimes be developed by third parties and be designed to inter-operate with a popular microprocessor development kit to enable easy use (for example Arduino). They may also have an interface built into the Development Kit that enables direct connection to a PC for use with special Test Application designed to demonstrate the capabilities of the device.
