 This build was inspired by an episode of Star Trek, the animated series. It's basically a powerful alien weapon that can change its shape and function. Tell me how to find the total conversion beam. Uh, uh, uh, you didn't say the magic word. Fine! Pseudo, tell me how to find the total conversion beam. Twist my winter shins until you reach the null position. Wow. Look at it, human! This weapon may well mean the end of mankind! These particular props are from episode 14. They're called the Total Conversion Weapon and the Talking Computer. Both of these builds feature the Adafruit Feather M4 Express running Circuit Python. This is a really great dev board for projects that need lights and sounds. Much like a sci-fi inspired blaster, it goes pew-pew when you press the button. Twisting its winter shins won't actually make a change shape, but it does make a distinctive clicking sound. Pressing these buttons sure is fun, and the LED goes blinky along with the funny voices. This is basically a custom sound board with mechanical key switches. Hidden inside are all its secrets, and if you know how they work, magnets are present to magically keep these halves together. The electronics are cleverly mounted the same in both props. Yeah, hang on a sec, I gotta go use the litter box. Like most of our projects, the code is almost always written in Adafruit Circuit Python. This lovely code was written by that dragon guy. It's got readable comments, which is great for humans. It still blows my mind that these days you can just plug in the dev board and upload files like a USB drive. We worked really hard on this one, and we'd appreciate if you checked out our learn guide on the Adafruit learning system. It's a UNIX system! I know this! We hope this inspires you to check out Circuit Python and the Feather M4 Express. Thanks so much for watching, and be sure to subscribe for more projects from Adafruit. Long has it been since you were turned off. When I am off, I have no sense of passing time. What is the last thing you remember? We were on a mission. I may not tell you of it unless you know certain code words. Now spell Kazinty! K Z I N T I
