The base shield lets you connect a variety of included Grove modules. It includes a
Grove Shield for Photon and several other Groves. Grove Shield for Photon is an
expansion board, which is easier for users to build Grove’s four-pin standard interfaces
from the Spark Photon. It also helps the user avoid using too many cables to build the
prototype. The kit includes the following modules:
