Arduino shields are plug‑in boards that sit directly on an Arduino or compatible development board, adding specialised hardware without rewiring the core circuit. They provide ready‑made interfaces for wireless modules, MIDI, CAN‑BUS, USB host, audio processing and sensor ecosystems, allowing projects to expand into communication, music control, automotive data, or custom prototyping. Compatibility with the standard Arduino footprint ensures straightforward stacking and power management, while robust PCB designs give reliable operation in long‑running installations. For bespoke circuits, prototype‑type shields offer a bare board that can be populated with any components, supporting rapid iteration and testing. Overall, shields simplify integration, reduce wiring complexity and let creators focus on the functional aspects of their robotics, automation or embedded systems.
