Today marks the release of the new Star Wars film Rogue One. Set before the events of Episode IV: A New Hope, the film introduces new characters such as Jyn Erso, Cassian Andor, and Director Krennic. If you’d like to go to theater in style this weekend, StarWars.com has some excellent and relatively easy suggestions for pulling together last minute costumes. Even if you don’t want to go to the movie in costume, reading through the guide will give you an idea of how you can use what you have on hand in your closet to pull together makeshift costumes.
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.
I’ve seen the movie and it’s a nice spin off addition to the episodes. I can recommend to watch it!
