#pimoroni — Public Fediverse posts

@geerlingguy @adafruit Nice to see some #pimoroni Yukons in the wild. A great modular robotics system board. I did some testing of them pre-launch.

@adafruit

And it still works!

El 28 de julio de 2026 me llegó un correo con un asunto sencillo: «Pimoroni is 14!». Catorce años ya desde que vendieron su primer Pibow, la caja de metacrilato que fue su único producto durante un tiempo.

#RaspberryPi #pimoroni ahoy!

@recantha @rpimag I may have just grabbed all the parts in the #Pimoroni birthday sale to make a 2 player console to host this game. I guess I need to add 2 player capabilities now!

It looks beautiful at 480x480 resolution on the #pimoroni #presto but it runs so slowly at this resolution on the RP2350

This is a promising start to porting my run anywhere graphics apps to the #Pimoroni #presto. My basic graphics template is running using the QwSTpad controller for input. I should be able to get Asteroids running now.

Is anyone out there using the #Pimoroni cases? Are you having issues with the second NVME, or even the OLED?
I have three of these cases and they're proving to be a pain...

At #EMFCamp still?

Look out for our "puzzle" cards, be amused by Python being silly, find the URL, enter your details to be in the draw for a #Pimoroni Tufty badge with STEM kit.

Looking for work? Dev, test, QARA, data, physiotherapy... Check us out: https://flok.health/careers — we're Cambridge (UK) based, with 4 days on-site — we're a small mob, recently series A funded, and have our tech deployed with NHS trusts right now, really helping people, and improving waiting lists. It's nice to do something that has a meaningful measurable impact.

My travels today have taken me through the lounge, the bars, and #nullsector.

If you spot these cards floating around #EMFCamp they're a little "puzzle" set (really just some "fun" Python language silliness) which will lead you to a URL where you can submit your personal details for nefarious purposes…a prize draw for a #Pimoroni "Tufty" badge. [Prize will be drawn next week, then all data collected will be deleted.]

Both in the name of profile raising for my little employer (Flok) and as part of a bit of a recruitment drive for the sorts of smart folks who get things done who can be found at EMF! https://flok.health/careers — in my area I am mainly looking for software devs, but we're hiring across a whole variety of departments.

We're a recently Series-A funded small startup mainly working with the NHS in the physiotherapy area (we are a care provider and half my colleagues are physiotherapists, it's really interesting & different.)

(There was going to be a mini jobs fair, but that seems to have dropped thru the cracks of us all being a bit busy!)

Added a visor to the top of the LCD and now it's giving Weyland-Yutani vibes 👾

I uploaded the model for the "Don't Panic Cyberdeck" to Printables.

Let me know if you make one. Enjoy!

Tufty2350 LCD Badge: A Review

The Tufty2350 LCD badge is a 2.8 inch screen with a rechargeable battery in a sturdy case and a lanyard so you can hang it around your neck

In this article I'll look at the Tufty2350 LCD badge, some features about the badge, and then how to create a custom badge application.

Damn. The shipping for the #pimoroni Badgeware Tufty from #adafruit is between a third and just over half of the price of the Tufty itself as UPS is the only shipping option (afaics). Probably because of the battery. Pity they don't have a pickup window as their factory is less than a mile and a half from me

Today I received the #PicoSystem by #Pimoroni. I wanted to install #Doom on it but now I am hooked to Super Square Bros.😅

Home automation purchases from #pimoroni and my wife is thrilled by the project. #HA win!

On the down side, I now have around 50m of trench to dig across the garden.

I made it onto the #Pimoroni blog!

This is a huge step forwards. Finally worked out how to over-ride the screen clearing to not-quite-black on the Tufty2350 Badge OS. Significant frame boost and the game now displays the same on the badge as in my hardware emulator. I may keep the blue background splat mode as a debug tool. #pimoroni #badgeware

@rpimag I wrote a hardware abstraction framework so that I could port #MicroPython games written for a specific device to run on any hardware. Here is an example game where the exact same code module is running in Pygame on a computer where I can debug in full Python, and on the https://badgewa.re Tufty2350 badge from #Pimoroni. The game module has no hardware dependencies. All hardware access is via a class passed in, providing the methods needed to interact with it. #MakerMonday

Got the new 7 inch #pimoroni #InkyFrame with multicolour #eInkDisplay.

Knocked up another #solar and #SolarBattery stats display to go in the kitchen.

Colours change depending on charge/discharge and grid direction.
