I did it. I made my dream nail. Nokia 3310 with a real working light inside the screen. Y2K all day baby #nails#nailart#Nokia
Rather than a battery, the LED is powered through an inductive coil and the finger is placed in a changing magnetic field like an RDID reader or inductive charger. Premade stickers, such as Adafruit’s RFID/NFC Nail Stickers – 5 Pack with White LEDs make projects like these easier.
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.
