c-base is one of the oldest hackerspaces in Berlin. It’s a space station buried under Berlin since millions of years and they are organizing a hackathon to upgrade the automation systems on board. I am going to install an electricity consumption and temperature monitoring system, and you’re welcome to join! All skills are needed: electronics, networks, electrical engineering, processing, programming, php, JS, MySQL etc… Breakfast and launch are offered and the events is on sunday 20. November from 9:00 till 18:00. Here are more infos [German]: http://logbuch.c-base.org/archives/1432
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.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat – we’ll post the link there.
