Charging batteries with a DPS5015 and a couple variations of pedal generators. I also show the difference in effort pedaling a “tire on” trainer verses pedaling an e-bike motor based pedal generator. E-bike motor is much easier!

If you want to jump in fast into crafting an electronic project, without needing to solder or even just a breadboard, Pimoroni’s Inventor 2350 W gives you a ‘bento box’ of delicious popular treats with a Pico 2 W already built in for instant gratification.
The Inventor is a multi-talented board that does (almost) everything you might want a robot, prop or other mechanical thing to do. Drive a couple of standard motors (or fancy motors with encoders)? Yep! Add up to six servos? Sure? Attach a little speaker so you can make noise? No problem! It’s also got a battery connector, so you can power your inventions from AA/AAA or LiPo batteries, and carry your miniature automaton/animated top hat/treasure chest that growls at your enemies around with you, untethered.
You also get a ton of options for hooking up sensors and other gubbins – there’s two Qw/ST connectors for attaching breakouts, three ADC pins for adding analog sensors, photoresistors and such, and three spare digital GPIO you could use for LEDs, buttons or digital sensors. Speaking of LEDs, we’ve also somehow managed to fit in 12 addressable LEDs (AKA Neopixels) – one for each servo and GPIO/ADC channel (or just use the whole lot for making rainbows, that’s fine too).
Best of all though, is the brains of the outfit – the onboard Raspberry Pi Pico 2 W, which will give your creations 2.4GHz wireless connectivity. Use it to trigger your mechanical friends to do their thing remotely, or hook your robotic canary up to an API and report the air quality in your neighbourhood.
Since it uses Pico 2 W and RP2350 as the base board, there’s plenty of support for programming it in Arduino, Pico SDK, MicroPython, CircuitPython, or anything else that the Pico 2 W can wrangle!

Every Thursday is #3dthursday here at Adafruit! The DIY 3D printing community has passion and dedication for making solid objects from digital models. Recently, we have noticed electronics projects integrated with 3D printed enclosures, brackets, and sculptures, so each Thursday we celebrate and highlight these bold pioneers!
Have you considered building a 3D project around an Arduino or other microcontroller? How about printing a bracket to mount your Raspberry Pi to the back of your HD monitor? And don’t forget the countless LED projects that are possible when you are modeling your projects in 3D!

It’s JOHN PARK’S WORKSHOP — LIVE! — Coming up at 4pm ET / 1pm PT Today! LIVE TEXT CHAT IS HERE in the Adafruit Discord chat!
The live video will be on Youtube LIVE, Twitch, Periscope (Twitter) and Facebook.
Join maker John Park in his workshop each week as he builds, demos, hacks, and mods projects live on air! “John Park’s Workshop — LIVE” is the place to see creative projects come to life, as John uses a wide variety of tools and techniques to make everything from video game controllers to synthesizers to LED dance shoes to coffee robots, using digital fabrication, hand and power tools, microcontrollers, and more. Come on into the chat to participate in the fun! Every Thursday @ 4pm ET/1pm PT!
babyshark by Vignesh Natarajan helps make Wireshark made easy (in your terminal).
Wireshark is the world’s leading network protocol analyzer, used for capturing and interactively browsing traffic running on a computer network. It is a free, open-source tool used by network administrators, security professionals, developers, and educators to troubleshoot network issues, perform security analysis, and develop communication protocols.
Babyshark is a PCAP TUI that helps you answer:
It’s on GitHub under an open MIT license.
PICSY is an ESP32 based Pixel Art camera by Jana Marie Hemsing. It shoots color-indexed pixel art like PNGs directly onto an SD card.
The ESP32 is programmed in MicroPython. It is work in progress and will be moved to saving the PNG to a SD card directly soon.
See more in the project GitHub repo.
