This Expansion board is designed for the Seeed Xiao, and since the QT Py is pin compatible we thought we'd try it out with the RP2040 QT Py we just released to see how it works with CircuitPython. The RP2040 has toooons more flash and RAM than the SAMD21 so it's a great little add-on! There's a 128x64 OLED, button, piezo beeper, battery charger and booster, SD card and RTC. We were able to get eve...

In this tutorial we'll take a look at using the fuzzy skin feature in CURA. I demo the Fuzzy Skin Outside Only feature and talk about how I optimized the 3D model in order to avoid unwanted geometry. I also quickly take a look at slicing a cauldron and display stand.

Adafruiter Carter recently did a PR for adding Blinka support to the U2IF for RP2040 project. According to the developer, "u2if (USB to interfaces) is an attempt to implement some of the MicroPython "machine" module functionalities on a computer. The goal is to be able to communicate with breakout boards (sensors, lcd...) simply from a python program on x86 machine. It uses a Raspberry PICO microc...

We had a few PR's go into CircuitPython this week to add digital camera support to platforms with parallel-capture support. We started with SAMD51 and also added RP2040 thanks to some clever PIO work. PaintYourDragon and Jepler teamed up to one-two-punch Arduino and CircuitPy support at once, starting with with classic OV7670 cameras and then moving onto the OV2640's next. This could be great for...

Wippersnapper is our no-code IoT interface for Adafruit. IO - it lets you turn any WiFi-capable board into an IoT device without any programming - simply select what devices are connected to which pins on the hardware and it will auto-configure the firmware and even create a IO feed you can then log and/or use to control other devices by triggering events or webhooks. We recently added analog inpu...
