The Seeed Studio Grove - GSR (Galvanic Skin Response) sensor is an essential tool for hobbyists, educators, and researchers looking to measure emotional arousal by monitoring skin conductivity. Designed for seamless integration into the Grove ecosystem, this sensor is ideal for projects tracking physiological responses to stress or excitement; however, it is important to note that it is intended for experimental and educational purposes only and should not be used as a replacement for professional medical diagnostic equipment.

No, this sensor is designed strictly for educational and prototyping use and is not a medical-grade device.
Excessive moisture can cause short circuits or signal artifacts; always use the sensor on clean, dry skin.
While not strictly required, you can use standard Arduino analog functions to read the sensor output.
Yes, as long as the replacement material is conductive, it will function with the sensor.
Yes, motion can create 'artifacts' in the data. For the best results, the user should remain as still as possible.
Ensure the finger cots are firmly touching the skin and check that no cables are loose or experiencing electromagnetic interference.
Verify that the sensor is plugged into an analog-capable port and that the microcontroller's ADC is correctly configured.
To begin, connect the Grove GSR sensor to an analog port on your Grove shield using the provided 4-pin cable. Because the output is analog, you will use the `analogRead()` function in your code to capture raw values. The sensor is compatible with any board that supports 3.3V or 5V logic with an ADC input, including Arduino, Raspberry Pi (via an ADC converter), or Seeed Studio's own microcontrollers.
Care instructions are simple: keep the conductive finger cots clean and dry to ensure proper contact. If the cots become soiled, wipe them down gently with a damp cloth and allow them to air dry completely before the next use to maintain conductivity.
