OMC's H19 fiber-optic shield has been adapted as a stackable add-on for the Arduino Uno. It’s designed to simplify the integration of fiber-optic data links into microprocessor-based platforms.

OMC has launched a fibre optic transceiver shield for Arduino Uno, designed to work with PMMA (polymer) optical cables up to 25m long, plus demonstration software.

The components are in the same position due to a custom jig which means a standard shield will fit right into place. The Arduino started far less flashy yet nearly as fragile, and it has grown.

Preserving the standard form factor, shield compatibility and 5 V power supply of the popular UNO R3, the UNO R4 adds a 32-bit microcontroller with up to 16x the clock speed, memory and flash storage ...
