 It's time for some Python on hardware news. Yay, Blinka. Okay V Circuit Python 5.0 beta zero is released You've been doing this before mention again, please go to circuit python.org slash downloads update your board Try out the beta give us any feedback. You can find us on discord. You can open up an issue on github Circuit Python 5 is only good because of all of you out there. So yeah, we've really cemented the Bluetooth Oh energy library and API. So that's a big part of it STM 32 Support has greatly improved People have who have STM 32 f4 boards can probably add them in and get them supported in circuit Python builds now All right Python sneak it its way to the newsstand and this is stuff that was on the newsstand and it just happens to be Circuit Python so Hackspace magazine was on the stands of wearable tech projects So if you want with all of her projects there Also, there's a really good wire to pick it up. By the way, it's one of my favorite covers that they've done Additionally Here's a bunch of Python books things are Python in the magpie back there had Python stuff It is a Python world we're living in and I'm so glad and thankful that we have something for all the people Who know Python you could do electronics now. So go to your local newsstand take a look around The times are changing Speaking of this is the latest issue of Hackspace magazine We were thankful for them because they managed to put together a magazine every month and it's fantastic I used to work at lots of different magazines. I know it goes into it Hackspace magazine maker Christmas. It has a ton of great Adafruit things. They all run circuit Python A lot of our stuff ended up on the cover. Thank you for that maker Christmas presents This is just some of them Playground blue fruit tft gizmo cricket Grand Central There's also a fantastic article about circuit Python and Bluetooth low energy that Ben wrote and don't forget It's all free. You can download it. You can also buy an issue, but if you subscribe You get a circuit playground express as subscriptions better 12 months get a circuit playground express Okay in the world of circuit Python on hardware. This is from Cedar Grove, I believe. Yeah, it usually is it is Cedar Grove studio This is the ad 52 245 digital pot break up board and it has a simple implementation of the analog devices I to see 10k ohm chip so check this out their circuit Python code for it and more lots of folks got their eight fruit edge badges Powered by circuit Python. You can check out Alex's Full post about this a weekend full of hacking and projects realized and this was a parts per million CO detector that you can Hook up and it just works with the laser in it Well, we already had a driver for you know even driver for a lot of these sensors So you probably just you know piped it in and ready to go Okay, and then a bed of computing design how to post up hackaday super conference by Jeremy cook an incredible collection of people and tech This is another thing. I'm thankful for is I started hackaday It still looks like this I designed the logo and I had to look and feel it That's capital letter. Yeah, but I'm so thankful that the site's still around cool people are running it and it's not a garbage site That's just Spam or gone or whatever. It's you know 15 years later and it's still around so very cool to see people enjoying Something I started a long time ago. This is neat This person is from particle. So they they have really good electronic taste. They make all those sculptures and Here's a comment This beautifully designed batch of made for you was given out super con this year and it's packed with so many things My favorite was the NES emulator the last you simply drop the games on it I didn't even know that one could run an emulator and honey micro samd 51. That's right We have a drag-and-drop. It's called arcade and you can drag and drop Little games on it. This came from Chris It would give us all edge badges running circuit Python It blew people's minds to see how easy circuit Python is to use with Scott here to tell us all about this It's so easy to use. It's like it's it's violating Yeah, some people get mad how easy it is. They're like, no, you know, it's just too easy. I want to be in the bare metal anyways Good luck with that Post yeah, some talks and more at Thea flowers is excellent talk. Please go check it out Since since since Becky button has this very cool. Welcome to circuit playground express light gooey This is for Becky's term project and this is code In circuit Python that makes code in circuit Python interesting, but he posted up a little preview and We'll post more as we see it speaking hackaday. They posted up this. This is a feather based circuit Python sculpture the Eyes and that code is in circuit Python and then of course it's a feather Melissa ran some boards. This was originally designed by Deshi poo Melissa sent these boards to Osh Park. It has the after dark theme So this is a blinker and this is a functional circuit Python board Max who was on our show has a new round of Sam 32 boards Fret on the oven and you can learn how to build all these yourself. This is a very cool project. They've got a cool Set of documentation and max is one of the people who is putting circuit Python in space This is a preview from electronic cats one of our favorite open-source hardware companies. This is not released yet It's one of their new boards feather format and runs circuit Python Here is some conductive thread that happens to be running a Circuit playground board. You see this cool. Hello world. Yeah Like easy easy snap is your finger. That's right These are 3d printed Neopixel Powered tree ornaments. Yeah, they're like attached to the tree. This is like a scene from avatar I know what's going on. It's like it's like the trees alive. This is from maker fair Rhode Island and You know, it's super cool to run. I like it. It's like look, we can't afford the giraffe. Yeah, but what we got Sparky the unicorn fix the unicorn. Yeah, it's cool. Well the drafts huge. Yeah This is cool. I got some little cart. Hey I think that was one of the kids that was on this busters. Yeah junior, okay, this is Code and more and hacks that folks are making with the edge badges. This is Pong All right ping pong. There's a cool hat and of course it does more It's important to have gigantic eyeballs that glow. That's right on your hat And this is one of my favorite projects. This is a neopixel enhanced suitcase So the neopixels glow and before everyone says TSA TSA, you know, there's you can have batteries and things Don't don't go on Twitter and yell at people when they show their projects There's something that might go on an airplane like no one wants that If you see someone tell them to stop doing that store desk noses me Okay, and then this is an LED hinge. This is Hard by a feather. No, it's like a trinket Yeah, trinket zero and I think circuit Python and some neopixels nice ring. Yeah This is from geek mom and geek mom is coming up with a line of wearable electronics And this one happens to be a backpack. I think it's gonna work out really well This is cool I like this this goes in your and it uses a micro bit make a bet and it's a clear backpack And I think kids have to use clear backpacks now So you could put all the electronics in there and more. Okay. This was a STM Feather that we made yeah, this person is using this to tell the temperature of their chili lobby And they're using circuit Python and this quick cable. So it's really great We tried to make it as easy as possible and move and move so it's just like so fast All right, this is using circuit playground Explorers blue fruit and our blue fruit app and this is elf waving. Hi. Well, hi. Well, hi elf Hello, hello This is a bunny neopixel mask This is so cool. Look at how beautiful this is. Yeah, so it's like so hot, but still so hot It's so hot and so hot And then it goes like bam. Yeah, and then this is what it looks like with the fur Okay, they did like the mapping and everything. It's so much effort Not easy at all. Cool. All right, and then here's something I'm excited about so one of my favorite makers that does companion robots is Jorvan and Jorvan is working on a new set of companion robots using cricket and that means more people will be able to remake and make them so I'm looking forward to that and Jorvan, if you need some more electronics, let me know This food is working on a new pu pu pu pu pu pu and four. Yeah, I feel like he said that he said this is it This is like the final. No, it's never over though. I agree. Here's a here's an expanded view exploded views We have some new boards on circuit python.org we're up to 87 boards one of the most recent We have a couple of PRs coming in. So you'll probably see You know go get a couple dozen more soon Yep, but the edge bad which is actually the same as the pie badge and then every week our team in the newsletter Puss up what they're up to it's my favorite section on the newsletter This is from Brian Stasius and these are just some of the breakouts and some of the boards that Brian is working on You can tune into the latest from Brian Melissa Scott Dan Jepler Everybody's getting it. I know it's good and Github's archiving all the open source out there and they're putting in like a bunker Archive program like github.com. So of course, what do we do? We made a countdown timer Yeah Yeah, if you have code on github, it's all going to get archived together Which is interesting because it's like not just code. It's actually a really interesting like social snapshot Yeah, of like humanity and what were we interested in so be nice on github everybody because someone's gonna look at a thousand years from now They're gonna be like Dan. That's a mean issue There are some updates on Linux and a lot of it has to do with all sorts of things that's in our world risk five MIPS arm you name it. There's a lot of stuff going on check it out That's why I linked to it because a lot of us are doing Python which happens to be on Linux or a Raspberry Pi. So check it out and that is Python hardware news for the week. Thank you everybody. Yeah, thank you Blinka Blinka
