TinyLily / Re: Pinout documentation

« on: May 06, 2013, 01:31:39 PM »

Seconded. I recently received my TinyLily boards and several motor boards. I have a few cool ideas for projects that I'd like to try building, but I'm a little hesitant to start wiring up the motor boards. They are so tiny and there are no instructions. Please, try to set up some basic instructions for all your current boards! And I'm really looking forward to a tiny accelerometer board for TinyLily!

I vote for this also, I have been looking for a very small ESC for use on a tiny quadcopter. Ordinary DC motors seem to be not powerful enough for copters, so brushless would be better.

One more vote for this. I would like to make a tiny quadcopter with TinyLily, and a small IMU would be ideal.

I second this, especially for TinyLily it would be great to have a small and cheap accelerometer board for sensing hand gestures. Or counting steps by adding them to socks/shoes.

New Product Ideas / capacitive sensing

« on: October 15, 2012, 02:25:11 AM »

For TinyLily, I would like to get a capacitive sensor board. I would like to experiment with embedding some capacitive sensing elements (made of conductive fabric or thread) for sensing touch and maybe even muscle movement. For example, this IC is cheap and with good features: https://www.sparkfun.com/products/9604 It has also led controllers so it could be used for a touchpad with led lights.
