Using EL once again for my students' performance using a glove controller, XBees, EL sequencers and Arduino.
Control your RedBot programmed with Arduino using the wireless joystick and a pair of XBees!
I enjoy electronics; I enjoy the outdoors; I enjoy lots in life that aren't chores.
Introducing SparkFun's new microcontroller graphics library: HyperDisplay! What is it, why did we make it and how can I learn more about it? All your musings will be concluded right here, right now.
The SAMD21 boards have the ability to add additional UART, SPI and I2C ports. Check out our new tutorial explaining how to set them up.
Let's check out my third design to control LEDs based on movement using an accelerometer!
Last week, we took a look at using the digital pins on our new LumiDrive LED Driver. This week, we'll play with the analog pins, and see if we can't put something together using both!
Have you been curious about trying Python on a microcontroller? The ESP32 is a great way to start!
In the latest Python tutorial series, we look at loading MicroPython onto six different microcontroller development boards.
We work with the Raspberry Pi pretty often here, and with a new version releasing we thought it would be a good time to gather our best tutorials and a few good add-ons.
Not working as expected? Luckily, we have a tutorial about where to start looking and will explore a few general troubleshooting tips that frequently come up in SparkFun’s technical support department!
A set of calipers can be an incredibly useful tool for precisely measuring the distance between objects.
