Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
Where are the plans?
coming soon
heh, make those leds infrared, you can burn out people’s corneas and block security cameras at the same time!
new bike light kit with driver blinding technology?
I can’t wait!!!!
I can’t wait until the rest of the solar sail is done. Not sure if you’re going to get enough photo pressure from this light though.
Well, that’s one way to get people to quit tailgating.
“Commence primary ignition!”
I’d like to see what the Mythbusters has to say about this one.
we have a preview of the video, the larger versions are uploading… http://adafruit.blip.tv/file/2652938/
hey kids…I use the Cree XR-E 7090 XLamps in grow lights. I’ve found the best prices in small volumes to be from a company called LEDlightingsupply. Generally I pay $3 a Cree for the 2W ones.

I know very little about LED’s, how the brain reacts to different light waves or different flashing frequencies, but I’m curious. You use Red, Blue and Green LED’s, but why not use white LED’s?
jeff, the human eye is most susceptible to blue/green light
