With some CADing after submitting my physcomp homework to cool down

Getting flashy with external buttons #BuiltWithProfG @gallaugher.bsky.social

That’s perfect, thanks

I want to control 25 LEDs (individual, preferably not buying a strip). Is there an easier way than connecting them to 25 pins on a Pico? Was thinking about wiring up some AND gates but that feels complicated.

Very cool! What board are you using here?

4x4 LED Cube for Raspberry Pi Pico 4x4 LED Cube for Raspberry Pi Pico: This 4x4 LED Cube will give a great introduction to more complex circuitry as well as providing more than a little experience soldering.

Just made my first instructable! It is a fully indexable 4x4 LED cube powered by a Raspberry Pi Pico running Circuitpython

Thanks to @gallaugher.bsky.social for the motivation to pursue this project and excited for many more!

Incredibly cool. Neat application of some E&M concepts, too. (Also, dope animations).

Check out my first instructable, where I put together a 3d printed and laser cut piano with CircuitPythonand a Pico 2!

Of course, huge shoutout to the BC Hatchery and everyone making @gallaugher.bsky.social Physical Computing class work.

@gallaugher.bsky.social #BuiltWithProfG A little late on this week’s post, but I’ve been wiring up an amplifier and a speaker. Had to make my own low pass filter with some wiring! Now some hand-soldered buttons to control what gets played.

Shoutout y2y harvard square, great org and whoever 3d printed that must be pretty cool

@gallaugher.bsky.social #BuiltWithProfG Drew and I have been ordering some new parts to play with—here is a speaker, a Pico 2, and an amplifier all wired up! (Needs a lot of soldering—I have to hold some of the pins together)

That looks like a great box! Sure hope he doesn’t glue all the sides on sideways…

@gallaugher.bsky.social #BuiltWithProfG decided my bluefruit was getting cold in this weather, so I 3d printed it a nice container. Also, sound and volume control with buttons!

In my defense I got it right after you stopped recording

@gallaugher.bsky.social learning to get random with adafruit! My bluefruit is now an agent of (psuedo-random) chaos. #BuiltWithProfG

@gallaugher.bsky.social #BuiltWithProfG Wired up the light tough buttons we soldered last class and made a little light show.

@gallaugher.bsky.social a little intra-week project--made a morse code translator/communicator on our bluefruits! Using buttons, time, and some lists. #BuiltWithProfG

oh. oh wow. this kids going places.

@gallaugher.bsky.social #BuiltWithProfG used some for loops to create a quick water bottle timer to remember to stay hydrated while working 👍
