Give your valentine a truly special gift with the cyber flower digital valentine project! This is a beautiful artificial flower that glows different colors using a Gemma M0 and its built-in DotStar LED. If you pick up the cyber flower it detects your touch and animates a glowing heart beat to show its love. This flower will never die–as long as its batteries are charged.
The cyber flower is a great demonstration of CircuitPython code. CircuitPython is a version MicroPython and the Python programming language which can run on boards like the Gemma M0. With simple Python code the cyber flower animates its DotStar LED. You can even modify the code with ease and no need to install software or complex tools.
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.
