  1. First things first... the guts! The brains of the operation is an #UnexpectedMaker ESP32-S2 Feather Board running #CircuitPython and soldered to some perfboard. Around the outside is an @adafruit Neopixel ring and in the middle is a beefy 7-segment display. Using the Stemma connector I also have AHT20 and SGP40 sensors connected. The sensors are currently "stuck" to the front of the enclosure for air flow reasons.

  2. My #3dprinted take on the Canairi air quality sensor features an SGP40 gas sensor and an AHT20 temperature and humidity sensor. Powered by #CircuitPython it reacts to the air by “dying” when air quality gets low but also logs it’s readings to #HomeAssistant over #mqtt (and the whole thing runs off an #UnexpectedMaker ESP32-S2). Can be wall-mounted or placed on its stand. Designed and modelled in #tinkercad

  3. Today I’m moving my air quality birb from an @adafruit Feather RP2040 to a Feather ESP32-S2 (by #unexpectedmaker ). Then with some minor tweaking I’ll have it sharing its data with #homeassistant via #mqtt

  4. @Macross No, not really 😅
    It’s a #KeyboardFeatherWing (@solderparty) connected to a #FeatherS2 (#unexpectedmaker ) … a small controller that run @circuitpython.
    I need to try it with the #FeatherS3 😅
    But yes, some old part of BlackBerry may be used for this keyboard 😇

    About the QrCode it’s a link to this profile 😇 it’s pinned on my twitter for the ones that didn’t escaped it yet.

  6. Upgraded #KeyboardFeatherWing (#SolderParty) to Revision 2. Upgraded #circuitpython to 7.1 on my two #FeatherS2 ( #unexpectedmaker ) and updated/fixed my old code from 6.3.
    I will put one (and a #Serpente) in my backpack … ready for vacation 😇
