Hey everybody! I just had a couple questions about sensor boards.
1. What exactly do they do?
2.How much do they cost?
3.Would you say that they are worth getting?
4.Where do you get them?
Thanks!

1.send input to scratch.They are outside sensors you connect to scratch that sense light, sound, movement (of the slider) ,etc.
2.$50.
3.Yes. But you also be interested in buying a usb game controller, and using joy2key to use that to control scratch. (or, if you're in to electronics, figure out how to build a game controller on top of the electrical resistance sensors, like I saw a kid do at scratchday mit.)
4.Here.

That guy was pretty cool, he built a game controller ontop of a Scratch Board.
Hope he comes back next year.

Yeah guys! I'm into electronics! I bet i could do that. I would just build it from scratch (bad pun, eh?) if i knew how to convert to usb.
