A 3D printable case is needed for Build A.

The Raspberry Pi should be isolated from the sensors, to avoid the Pi's high temperatures from affecting sensor accuracy.

The case should have good but not turbulent ventilation over sensors, and protect them from direct light. Ideally, it would follow any airflow directions outlined in the sensor data sheets (Sensirion has very specific details here).

Dims for the standard Qwiic 1" breakout. The mounting holes are compatible with 4-40 screws e.g. https://www.sparkfun.com/products/10453 and https://www.sparkfun.com/products/10463.

This is for the SCD40 and SGP40.

Note, the MS5637, BME680, and some others that I've seen are the same but only have two mounting holes. For future compat it may be good to ensure any 2-hole sensors can mounted.

I have found this ambient light sensor from Adafruit that is QWIIC compatible: https://www.adafruit.com/product/4681
