This week @adafruit we’re releasing our IoT Pool Notification guide. Prototyping an Apple IIe inspired enclosure for the Fruit Jam. Shoptalk segment on how Noe added images to his Mac Classic Fruit Jam and a special full color resin print from JLCPCB. This week’s time lapse features an articulating skeleton reindeer.

Build an internet-connected pool notifier to alert the neighborhood that the pool party is underway!
Guide: learn.adafruit.com/pool-party-notification-device
In this guide, you’ll use Adafruit IO and WipperSnapper firmware to build a pool party notifier that raises a flag and displays a message on an E-Ink screen. This project can be completed without programming or soldering.
When your pool is ready for guests, press a button on the Adafruit IO dashboard to send the flag up. We’ve also designed a 3D-printed enclosure to house the project.
You can print the enclosure or pick one up from the Adafruit shop!

You can build a tap-to-play video player using a Raspberry Pi 5, Adafruit’s NFC Breakout and NFC cards. Full Tutorial: https://learn.adafruit.com/nfc-raspberry-pi-media-player
To play a movie, just tap an NFC card over the 3D printed case. A python script runs code that launches movies in the VLC media player.
The NFC cards are fitted inside a 3D printed case inspired by VHS cassette tapes.
This project aims to make the movie watching experience more special by creating a physical experience. No streaming networks or wifi necessary!

Full tutorial: https://learn.adafruit.com/chinese-dragon-puppet-with-motion-reactive-flame-effect/overview
Make a Chinese Dragon puppet with a dramatic flame LED effect. The lights are motion-reactive so he lights up when you shake him. This project uses an Adafruit Circuit Playground Express with a built-in motion sensor and NeoPixel LED lights. The code is written in Microsoft MakeCode, an easy-to-use drag and drop code editor. (Or maybe in this case, a dragon-drop code editor.)
This is an easy beginner-level project that involves a little bit of soldering. You can download our code sample, or learn to make your own flame effects. This is a fantastic project to do with kids.
