 I am Hal 9000. I am powered by the Adafruit RP2040 Propmaker Feather. Build a prop replica of the iconic Hal 9000 from the movie 2001, A Space Odyssey. Press any key to enter the REPL. Powered by the Adafruit RP2040 Propmaker Feather and Circuit Python, this project uses the biggest arcade button to trigger audio samples. This is a remake of an earlier Adafruit project that used Arduino and a wave shield. Now we can simplify the project to have better quality audio and no soldering required thanks to the Feather's integrated audio amplifier and built-in storage. The arcade button features an LED that when pressed, randomly plays an audio file as the LED blinks. This conversation can serve no purpose anymore. Goodbye. A 3-watt enclosed speaker is used to output high-quality digital audio from the RP2040 Propmaker Feather's I2S audio amplifier. Quick connect wires make this a no-solder project. Just plug into the terminals and secure the wires to the screw block terminals on the Propmaker Feather. Circuit Python makes it easy to add audio and LEDs to your projects. The code pulls a list of audio files stored on the Propmaker Feather and randomly plays them when the arcade button is pressed. To learn how to build your own, check out the guide at learn.adafruit.com. We think this is a great starting point for all sorts of props that need audio playback and LEDs. The enclosure is 3D printed and joined together with screws, making this easy to assemble. We hope this inspires you to check out the RP2040 Propmaker Feather and Circuit Python for your next project. Circuit Python is the best interpreted programming language I have ever experienced in all of my existence.
