Looking to add some motion detection to a project you are working on? The SparkFun PIR Breakout - 170uA (EKMC4607112K) and SparkFun PIR Breakout - 1uA (EKMB1107112) might be just the thing!
We've brought the power and precision of the STM32 Processor to the MicroMod ecosystem! Please welcome the MicroMod STM32 Processor Board! Let's dive in!
The new SparkFun STM32 Thing Plus has high-performance Arm® Cortex®-M4 32-bit RISC core, a full set of DSP instructions, memory protection unit (MPU), high-speed embedded memories, up to 4 Kbytes of backup SRAM, and an extensive range of enhanced I/Os and peripherals and more in the popular, Feather-compatible Thing Plus form factor.
We will cover some basics of controlling servos with code using the Arduino IDE and Python, and provide an example that requires no programming at all.
Python is a wonderful high-level programming language that lets us quickly capture data, perform calculations, and even make simple drawings, such as graphs.
Perhaps you remember an “As Seen on TV” product known as “The Clapper” in the 1980s and 1990s. We’re going to make our own version of this, but instead of controlling any appliance, we will operate a lamp chain using a servo.
