Build a Magikoopa Wand with Adafruit’s New RP2040 PropMaker Feather.
Guide: https://learn.adafruit.com/mario-magic-wand
We designed and 3D printed a magic wand inspired by the Super Mario Brothers movie. It’s got motion activated lights and sound with a spinning crystal gem.
This new Feather is an all-in-one dev board that features an I2S amp, accelerometer, NeoPixel driver, Servo Header Pins, STEMMA QT and screw block terminals.
It’s got the RP2040 chip with 8MB of SPI flash, 21 GPIO pins, and lipo battery charging over USB-C.
With CircuitPython, the board acts like a USB drive so you can easily customize the code with just about any computer.
You can modify the code to fit your project, just change the values such as the NeoPixel color, speed or the accelerometer threshold.
Every Thursday is #3dthursday here at Adafruit! The DIY 3D printing community has passion and dedication for making solid objects from digital models. Recently, we have noticed electronics projects integrated with 3D printed enclosures, brackets, and sculptures, so each Thursday we celebrate and highlight these bold pioneers!
Have you considered building a 3D project around an Arduino or other microcontroller? How about printing a bracket to mount your Raspberry Pi to the back of your HD monitor? And don’t forget the countless LED projects that are possible when you are modeling your projects in 3D!
