Adafruit is at National Maker Faire – Jessica, our Director of Community, Support and Publishing ran in to Megan Smith, the USA CTO.
On June 12th-13th, 2015, makers from across the United States will convene in Washington, DC—to celebrate Making at the inaugural National Maker Faire. A collaboration between NationOfMakers.org, the DC Government, the University of the District of Columbia, and Maker Media, the National Maker Faire is bringing inventors, tinkerers, and makers of all ages to our Nation’s capital. Occurring at the beginning of the “Week of Making” on June 12-13, 2015, the celebration gives curious, inventive people a place to share what they love to make.
We’ll have posts, photos and more from the event soon!
Make a robot friend with Adafruit’s CRICKIT – A Creative Robotics & Interactive Construction Kit. It’s an add-on to our popular Circuit Playground Express, FEATHER and other platforms to make and program robots with CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. Start controlling motors, servos, solenoids. You also get signal pins, capacitive touch sensors, a NeoPixel driver and amplified speaker output. It complements & extends your boards so you can still use all the goodies on the microcontroller, now you have a robotics playground as well.
