The Adafruit forums are a great place to get help with your projects– and we just added a wearables board! Folks are building so many FLORA projects that we decided customers needed a special place to post (and ask questions about) wearables projects and techniques! Post your queries about any of the tutorials in our FLORA section on the Adafruit Learning System, and build the wearable electronics project of your dreams! Then post pictures of it. See you in the forums!
We’ve just given the Adafruit YouTube channel a facelift! Not only have we adopted the new One Channel design, but we made a new channel trailer enticing new viewers to stick around and make something.
Check out our freshly-updated video page to see all the great shows and videos Adafruit has to offer! It’s easier than ever to find exactly what you’re looking for, or discover something you never knew would interest you.
Learn to create an account on the Adafruit site! I’ve been enjoying Becky’s videos that share some of the capabilities of Adafruit’s online resources with the community, so I rounded up a bunch of the frequent questions we have been receiving about user accounts and created a video! Watch the video on YouTube (please subscribe!) and Vimeo.
The aptitude of young electronics enthusiasts seems to be soaring– what a fun time it is to discover engineering!. 10-year olds are building quadcopters, teenagers are releasing kits, toddlers are using littleBits, and kids show us the coolest projects on our weekly Show-and-Tell. We collected some of our favorite products for inclusion in a new category in the catalog: Young Engineers. Expect coloring books, educational robot kits, stickers, plush toys, and other fun things to inspire the next generation of scientists and engineers.
All of my requirements sheets are geared toward high school environments. If you require either easier or harder requirements feel free to make a request! My objective on the requirements sheet is to have the students familiar enough with the component that they can use it effectively in their designs and troubleshoot problems when they arise. Please feel free to modify the sheet to fit your needs.
The Adafruit site will be down for a few moments today (again) we’re upgrading our servers in preparation for some AWESOME new features on the site we think you’re going to love. We’ll post updates as the site upgrade happens on Twitter and Google+
