IoT Projects

Accidental Antenna Design

To most engineers, antenna design is “one of those witchcrafts you either know how to do, or you just don’t”. Janne’s research lets a cluster of Nvidia B200 GPUs brute-force antenna designs for manufacturing, the results are pretty surprising. - somethingfromnothing

ePaper Camera

Snap lo-fi pictures and transmit them over WiFi to your ePaper photo frame! - Adafruit Learning System

OpenClaw on Raspberry Pi

An experiment for giving an LLM agent full control over a Raspberry Pi and letting it interact with the physical world using peripherals such as a TFT display, sensors, and a USB camera. - Adafruit Learning System

Analog Clock with NTP Time

This project modifies an analog clock (the ones with hour and minute hands) to connect to a network time server, allowing it to display incredibly accurate time. - GitHub

Hacking the Adafruit IO Library

Our IoT Service, Adafruit IO, recently added a new API for grabbing air quality data from Open-Meteo (for international users) and AirNow (for US users). Danak hacks apart the CircuitPython library to add support for this new API. - Adafruit Learning System

WipperSnapper Hardware Catalog: “Works with WipperSnapper”

If you’ve ever thought to yourself, “I’d like to try out Adafruit’s no-code WipperSnapper firmware for my next project, but I’m not sure what hardware I can use!”, we’ve got just the thing for you! - Adafruit IO Blog

My smart sleep mask broadcasts users’ brainwaves to an open MQTT broker

Aimilios Hatzistamou recently got a smart sleep mask from Kickstarter. What was not expected was the ability to read strangers’ brainwaves and send them electric impulses in their sleep. - Adafruit Blog

Support Adafruit

Here at Adafruit, we sell all of these amazing components, but we couldn’t find a good way to interact with them over the Internet. So, we decided to create our own IoT platform, and that’s Adafruit IO. It’s built from the ground up to be easy to use and platform agnostic (connect any development board or device!). For those who want to get a project off the ground without programming - Adafruit IO offers a No-Code interface for building IoT electronics projects using WipperSnapper, our open-source IoT firmware. Support Adafruit’s open-source development by subscribing to Adafruit IO Plus, the upgraded, all-systems-go version of the Adafruit IO service.
