NEW GUIDE: Pixie CyberWig – WiFi wearable for performances
What would happen if our Cyber Falls wig and Lightship LED widgets were involved in a teleporter mishap? You might end up with the Pixie CyberWig, an LED-festooned costume piece that uses WiFi to sync up with projected visuals.
Imagine…
All your LED costume pieces in sync with each other. All of them listening and responding to the music around you. Your hand-made hat, wig, poi, and jacket all pulsing to the sound and visuals running on your laptop – with no extra coding required.
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.
