Pairing two thousand addressable LEDs with sensors and the web, the pendant is aware of everything from local environments to twitter trends.
With a local weather API, the pendant brings the outside world indoors. Wake up with the sun and watch gray fog burn away as warm yellows wash over the pendant. An afternoon shower brings cool blue waves to the surface, and transitions to rich red sunset before the white moon rises.
Electret Microphone Amplifier – MAX9814 with Auto Gain Control: Add an ear to your project with this well-designed electret microphone amplifier with AGC. This fully assembled and tested board comes with a 20-20KHz electret microphone soldered on. For the amplification, we use the Maxim MAX9814, a specialty chip that is designed for amplifying electret microphones in situations where the loudness of the audio isn’t predictable. (read more)
Adafruit NeoPixel Digital RGBW LED Strip – White PCB 60 LED/m: What is better than smart RGB LEDs? Smart RGB+White LEDs! These NeoPixels now have 4 LEDs in them (red, green, blue and white) for excellent lighting effects. These LED strips are fun and glowy, and you can control each LED individually! (read more)
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.
