This polka-dot dress lights up when I dance! ✨ I added 216 individually addressable NeoPixel LEDs, with one light hidden behind each polka dot. A motion sensor makes the dress flare up when I move! The whole system is powered by an Adafruit RP2040 Prop-Maker Feather running CircuitPython. It's wearable, rechargeable, and programmed with multiple animation levels so the lights respond differently as the movement intensifies.

In this episode of Teaching Python, Kelly Schuster-Paredes and Julian Sequeira are joined by engineer and maker Todd Kurt to discuss what happens when code leaves the screen and starts interacting with the physical world. The conversation centers on CircuitPython, MicroPython, and physical computing, with a focus on how these tools are used in classrooms and maker projects. Todd explains his background in engineering, web development, and open source hardware, including his work on LED devices and his recent focus on CircuitPython. He describes the differences between CircuitPython and MicroPython, emphasizing that CircuitPython is designed to feel closer to desktop Python and to support teaching, while MicroPython makes more efficiency-focused tradeoffs. The discussion also covers the practical challenges of hardware-based learning. Todd and the hosts talk about bootloaders, UF2 files, board compatibility, library management, and common mistakes such as using the wrong cable, the wrong board file, or wiring power and ground incorrectly. They note that these issues can make hardware feel frustrating, especially for beginners and teachers preparing classroom kits. Kelly and Julian share their classroom experiences, including using preloaded boards, NeoPixels, sensors, and simple student-designed projects. They discuss how hardware can support troubleshooting skills, file-system awareness, and persistence, and why students often engage more when they are building something tangible, such as a sensor-based wearable or a small robot. The episode also includes Todd's stories about early embedded work, including a costly lab mistake, and his involvement in hardware that contributed to space missions. He closes by describing a compact synthesizer project built around a Raspberry Pi Pico and by noting that he shares work through his website and online accounts.Special Guest: Tod Kurt.

This week at the Desk of Ladyada, we're comin' back from maternity leave and getting spun up with a bunch of projects. First, a fun mailbag item: the XTEInk ‘pocket' reader running crosspoint open firmware on an ESP32-C3. Since it's running an Espressif chip, we could also install CircuitPython or WipperSnapper on it…a great side-effect of more off-the-shelf goods coming with ESP32 chips! See also our Yoto-hacking guide on learn. Next, we've been really enjoying running OpenClaw on a Pi 5 and connecting it up to Adafruit hardware to do ‘full circle' test-driven development. We have Anthropic Opus do the datasheet parsing and design document, then ‘farm' out the coding work to OpenAI Codex. After the driver is written, we also have it design tests to verify hardware functionality, using other GPIO pins, NeoPixels, servos, etc., to exercise the chip capability. It's able to run tests and then fix bugs all on its own, then text me when it needs help or to alert that it's done. It's very slick and fun! Finally, using that same system of coding, we had it ‘one-shot' a miniature oscilloscope demo for the unreleased Stemma Friend from way back (well, it took a few back-and-forths to get it just how we like). Could we have coded it by hand? Probably! But we were able to guide the development and get the look and performance we wanted in about 30 minutes of prompting while also laying in bed and chillin' with a newborn.
