# BLE Buzzy Box
## Overview
## BLE Notifications
Get your Apple Notifications with a Buzz! This project showcases how to use Adafruit Feather Sense nRF52840 and the DRV2605L haptic motor controller to trigger and display lights with Apple Notification Center Service (ANCS).
## Modular Case Design
Inspired by the [FREKVENS Ikea portable speaker](https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/frekvens-portable-speaker-black-20422612/), the enclosure pieces snap fits together and feature a modular design. Internal PCB mounting plate allows for swapping components and reusing enclosure pieces. The top cover pops open allowing for direct access to internal components.
