A complete kit for measuring air velocity using the Renesas FS3000-1015 sensor, SparkFun's Qwiic ecosystem, and an Artemis Nano microcontroller. Simply connect the sensor to the Artemis via the included Qwiic cable, upload the Arduino library, and start reading air speed — no soldering required.

The FS3000-1015 uses MEMS thermopile technology with 12-bit digital output, measuring air velocity from 0 to 15 m/s (0–33.6 mph). Silicon carbide coating protects against abrasive wear and water condensation, making it suitable for demanding environments.
