Here are two quick demos with playing some sound on the board:
Source: https://www.adafruit.com/
- 10 x mini NeoPixels, each one can display any rainbow color
- 1 x Motion sensor (LIS3DH triple-axis accelerometer with tap detection, free-fall detection)
- 1 x Temperature sensor (thermistor)
- 1 x Light sensor (phototransistor)
- 1 x Sound sensor (MEMS microphone)
- 1 x Mini speaker (magnetic buzzer)
- 2 x Push buttons, left and right
- 1 x Slide switch
- 8 x alligator-clip friendly input/output pins
Includes I2C, UART, and 4 pins that can do analog inputs/PWM output - All 8 pads can act as capacitive touch inputs
- Green "ON" LED so you know its powered
- Red "#13" LED for basic blinking
- Reset button
No soldering required, just plug it in, setup and off you go with your prototype!
I just had some time to play with it enough to set up the environment and get a few program going. Below are some useful links and screenshots. I was able to go thru the two sound tutorials:
1. Get the latest Arduino software.
2. Here is the Adafruit Getting Started with Circuit Playground instructions.
3. Circuit Playground Intro
4. Make sure you can see the serial port:
MacBook-Air:~ echou$ ls /dev/cu*
/dev/cu.Bluetooth-Incoming-Port /dev/cu.usbmodem1411
MacBook-Air:~ echou$
5. Setup screenshots:
6. I was able to get to these three tutorials:
- Playground Speaker
- Circuit Playground Library:
- The sound of music:
The only thing that I found for the sound of music tutorial is that extra library is needed besides pitches.h:
I am really looking forward to tinker with it more, the idea really is to integrate this with Raspberry Pi and Python to make some interesting project!
Happy Coding!
