 Blink a blink a blink a blink a what's new yeah, we're in my circuit python shirt, so I'm you are I'm in style That is the rule. That's the dress code here. Yes So this week in the newsletter we got a bunch of stuff going on so I guess I got a yeah, I got a remind Myself and others go to a different daily comm and just hit the button that says Python of microcontrollers and remember We don't spam. This is not connected to your a different store account We purposely did that so we could prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that we will never do anything like harvest your email Remarket it do anything so it's there unsubscribe anytime or subscribe because you know we're not gonna we're not gonna mess with you So this week there's a bunch of events going on so the risk 5 summit is happening This is pycon us 2020 the planning is starting check out the pycon blog there is a Giant amount of keyboards that are coming out since we do Each ID stuff with circuit python It seems to be the choice if we're doing a keyboard that has an rp2040. This is a really cute keyboard. Yeah, this is nice And then I'm glad we added that low-level keypad support. Yes Be it the sequence chart for circuit python 7 There's a hacktoberfest. There's the Halloween hackfest it is still open. Yeah hardware month. I thought this was neat someone Flower pot uses circuit python A little reminder for Scott and JP We interviewed Simon Monk did a programming pico. There's a chapter on circuit python There's also a bunch of micro python will have Simon on the show until next week And then there's just an unending amount of stuff and then I thought this was kind of neat This is you know, it's basically like our feather rp2040, but these folks have one and I Like I like what I'm seeing in the more feathers. Well, it's a feather and you know, now it's all about Run circuit python. Yes. So that was kind of cool So check out all this stuff and more and then this week I have one video and this is the camera stuff that you're working on so I'm gonna play that. Okay Lady was this okay I've been playing around with a lot of camera modules to get camera vision data in circuit python Into like an ESP 32 s2 and this camera is kind of neat inside it actually has a voice coil so it can do autofocus I've loaded in the autofocus firmware and you can even see Here's the little camera and I'm powering it from three volts. You can see it's like trying to do the autofocus mode So if I put something in front of it, it can actually do Macro shots and if I put this away, it'll focus on us So so far so good. It's kind of neat You can even hear a little clicking sound when it does the autofocusing the voice coil actually like literally moves the lens back and forth This is what happens in your smart cam, but now it works in circuit python. So that's great I'm going to write this up and release a driver for this OV 5640 camera with voice coil and That is this week's Python on hardware
