Prop-Maker Feather CircuitPython demo sketch
from Adafruit Industries · host Adafruit Industries
The prop-maker feather has so much hardware built-in, its going to be great for making props and toys that have audio, motion and LEDs. we whipped up a quick demo that shows off LED animations (https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_LED_Animation) on neopixels, motion sensing with the LIS3DH (https://www.adafruit.com/product/2809), servo output control to a micro servo (https://www.adafruit.com/product/169), and audio playback via a 3W I2S amplifier (https://www.adafruit.com/product/3006). CircuitPython has great I2S audio playback support and even supports digital mixing so there's volume control with an external potentiometer. All of this is running concurrently with excellent resposiveness, so we're going to order the PCBs shortly.
