| The Monthly Theme You Voted For: Solar Power Devices | ||
|---|---|---|
| Project14 | The Heat Is On: Harvest the Energy of the Sun to Build Solar Devices! | ||
| ||
 |  | |
The theme this month is Solar Power Devices and it comes from dwinhold, ntewinkel , and mcb1 . The idea being that its summertime so its time to create devices that use solar devices. This is not the first time the members have voted for solar energy projects, last year during the solar eclipse the was a Solar Powered Yard Gadget . For this theme you can do your own Solar Powered Yard Gadget , such as the Tilt Solar Light by carmelito and Building a Solar Charger by shabaz , if you missed out the last time, or you can do anything as long as it takes advantage of the energy of the sun. It's been incredibly hot here in the Midwest, and throughout the world this summer. Your devices can be anything that harnesses the natural energy of the sun to create energy. | ||
The Grand Prize
| STM8L1526PRIMER | Nucleo-H743ZI |
|---|---|
 |   |
Raisonance's Primer is a uniquely fun, easy, low-risk solution for exploring, evaluating and developing applications for the STM8 microcontrollers. It includes everything that users need to better understand the STM8's peripheral implementation and operation.
| The STM32 Nucleo-144 board provides an affordable and flexible way for users to try out new concepts and build prototypes with the STM32 microcontroller, choosing from the various combinations of performance, power consumption, and features.The ST Zio connector, which is an extension of Arduino™ Uno V3, provides access to more peripherals while ST morpho headers provide an easy means of expanding the functionality of the Nucleo open development platform with a wide choice of specialized shields. |
