The Sheikah Sensor in Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity registers specific materials in your inventory that you want to farm. This is useful for finding cooking ingredients, as well as items needed for quests.

You can register specific materials by pressing the + Button and going to the Materials section. Just press the A Button and it will register to the Sheikah Sensor! You may also edit materials registered by pressing the X Button.

Register a Specific Quest

The Sheikah Sensor can also be used to register quests and tag missing materials to finish the quest! It registers all materials you need to complete the quest, so it is very handy if there is a particular quest you want to complete!
