Wiring diagram combined with recorded output from the Metro RP2350. This clip is encoded at 30 fps; the board outputs video at 60 Hz. Trying a new circuit design tool + a quick demo of Apple’s handwritten “hello” on a Metro RP2350. Wiring diagram and recorded output together… video elements in diagrams could show what the connected display… displays. The drawing comes from a nre circuit designer t...

Make glowing LED bubble hair that reacts when you move your head! In this project, six strands of seed pixels are built into a hair fall and controlled by an Adafruit RP2040 Prop-Maker Feather. The LEDs show a soft color gradient during normal wear, then the onboard accelerometer detects a head shake and triggers animated rain effects. A gentle shake creates staggered glowing droplets that fall do...

Turn your bike wheel into a colorful persistence-of-vision display with CircuitPython. In this project, I’m using a Feather microcontroller and six high-speed LED strips mounted to the spokes of a bike wheel to display patterns, graphics, and animated images while the wheel spins. A USB battery keeps everything portable, and a magnetic sensor detects wheel speed so the images stay looking good whe...
