Wearable Electronics with Becky Stern 01/08/2014 – LIVE
Join Becky Stern and friends every week as we delve into the wonderful world of wearables, live on YouTube. We’ll answer your questions, announce a discount code for the Adafruit store, and explore wearable components, techniques, special materials, and projects you can build at home! Ask your wearables questions in the comments, and if your question is featured on a future episode, you’ll be entered to win the show giveaway!
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, or even use Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for MakeCode, CircuitPython, 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.

I just got my first GEMMA + NeoPixel project up and running. I’m loving it, but I have a couple questions:
1. What would you suggest for debugging GEMMA projects since there’s no Serial capability?
2. I thought of building some kind of interface in Processing; what’s the best way to connect a Processing sketch to GEMMA? Would I need to wire some kind of interface to GEMMA’s open pins, or is there a way to use the USB connection?
Hi –
I just got my first GEMMA + NeoPixel project up and running. I’m loving it, but I have a couple questions:

Thanks!
