part 1 in a series to build step-reactive light-up Circuit Walker Sneakers with Circuit Playground. Using the accelerometer and NeoPixels built into Circuit Playground classic and express you can build sneakers that light up with each step. This first video looks at the step detection algorithm and how to apply filtering to accelerometer values for basic step detection.
how to compile and flash an early port of MicroPython to the Adafruit Feather nRF52. Learn how to use a Vagrant virtual machine to compile the firmware and flash it to the board, then access the MicroPython REPL and control the board’s Bluetooth Low Energy radio.
The follow up video in the Circuit Walker Sneakers project series. This video follows part 1 by digging deeper into an adaptive step detection algorithm and using it to detect steps with Circuit Playground’s accelerometer. See how to load a final version of the Circuit Walker sneakers Arduino sketch and turn your shoes into fun glowing objects!
part 3 of the Circuit Walker Sneakers project. This is a CircuitPython version of the sneakers that are powered by Python code running on the Circuit Playground Express board. Learn about how to load the code and CircuitPython on a board, and how it works and how it was adapted from Arduino to run in a more constrained CircuitPython environment.
How to get started with CircuitPython on macOS / OSX. See how to load firmware onto a Circuit Playground Express and Gemma M0 board, and how to setup a simple editing workflow with the Atom text editor.
How to use digital I/O (inputs and outputs) with CircuitPython! Learn what a digital input and output is, and how to control LEDs and read buttons with them.
How to read analog values and output analog voltages with CircuitPython. Learn about analog to digital converters, digital to analog converters, and pulse-width modulation (PWM) outputs that can approximate analog outputs.
Reprise of Tony D’s talk from World Maker Faire 2017 and Seattle Mini Maker Faire 2017, “Make With Python”. Learn about interesting hardware that you can program with the Python programming language. This talk describes what is the Python language and why you might want to use it instead of other languages or tools like Arduino. There are live demos of blinky things powered by Python code!

In this video we explore how innovation and technology completely changing the world of finance. Discover how digitization and fintech are transforming the sector, building greater transparency to meet regulatory requirements and delivering stronger efficiencies and cost reductions to improve the customer experience.
Sustainable & Smart Cities – Dassault Systèmes. By 2050, the World Health Organization predicts that 70% of the population, or 6.4 billion people, will be urbanites. Many will live in cities that are decades or centuries old, built for vastly smaller populations with very different needs. As these new metropolises gestate and grow, they risk becoming sprawling, inefficient sinks, wasting precious resources such as land, water and energy, and becoming harder to manage logistically. How can we build more efficient cities that not only consider its citizens, but also its impact on the entire planet and its resources?
Perfect Package – Realistic Simulation – Dassault Systèmes. Discover how Perfect Package 3DEXPERIENCE from Dassault Systèmes has virtual testing capabilities, enabling designers to simulate how a new package design will behave at every stage of its lifecycle, resulting in lower costs, improved sustainability and faster time-to-market.
Life in Future – Accelerating Fashion Design with the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform – Dassault Systèmes. As product development cycles in the fashion industry continue to shrink in response to rapidly changing trends, LF Corp (LF) needed to efficiently collect consumer and market feedback and to share and manage its intellectual property in a sustainable way to accelerate new product development. LF adopted Dassault Systèmes’ 3DEXPERIENCE platform and the My Collection industry solution experience, a Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solution for fashion, to support real-time collaboration, and to manage its development processes and design data.
