Getting a message on a screen is great, but getting them on a cube is BETTER. Build an adorable message cube to accompany you on life’s adventures and deliver words from the internet via AdafruitIO!
This cube is powered by CircuitPython on a fancy ESP32-S3 QT Py! It has a LIS3DH accelerometer sensor board attached via a STEMMA QT connector, which means it’s easy to change the sensor anytime you need new cube superpowers. The QT Py BFF charger add-on makes this cube rechargeable via the USB-C port of the QT Py.
These six Dotstar LED matrices pack the cutest punch all into this tiny package! Ready to display 8x8 pixel art, a random wise quote, or anything else you might want.
Will it have the longest battery life? No. Will it be super fun to carry around? ABSOLUTELY.
You might want to brush up on some soldering skills before tackling this project!
Let's go make ourselves a glowy cube!
You will also need the following tools:
- Flush cutters
- Hot air gun
