New Product Ideas / Voice activated screen

I'd like a way to have a tiny screen play a video, but only while someone speaks near it (or any other sound), and have the whole outfit battery operated.

Quote from: DorothyJames on September 17, 2025, 04:35:50 AMHaving trouble finding the right battery too? I ordered some online that claimed to be compatible, but the connector was totally wrong! I ended up going to a local electronics repair shop and they hooked me up  with the perfect one. Might be worth a try! sex dolls usa

But local electronics repair shops are becoming increasingly scarce these days—at least around here.

Tiny Arcade & Pocket Arcade / Pocket Arcade with Acceleromet...
Last post by ironman125 - November 19, 2025, 11:08:33 PM
I am trying to use the pocket arcade with the accelerometer wireling to make a game that uses the accelerometer as an input.  Depending on the order that I initialize the display and the accelerometer I can either get the display to work with constant -1 accelerometer error readings or I can read the accelerometer effectively without the ability to show anything on the display.  Does anyone know how both of these can be used at once without having one overwrite the other?  Thanks

Wirelings / Microphone Wireling
Last post by zhunerer - November 13, 2025, 05:43:34 AM
Hi all, I've got a Microphone wireling, wireling adaptor, and a TinyZero. I've been trying to get the microphone to work and followed the documentation code but the reading seems to change randomly, and it doesn't increase or decrease based on sound. Please help!  :'(

Thumby / Issue with screen
Last post by kennethjohn - November 06, 2025, 04:51:12 AM
Hello,
When I unboxed mine, I was able to play it for an hour before plugging it in for the night. Now, whenever I flip the power switch, it won't turn on. I've tried several different cables, but nothing works. Would a software update help, or do I just have a dead unit?

TinyTV & Tiny Video Player / Re: Bettery Replacement

Wondering the same. I have a 1000mAh battery here coming from a small vape, but looking at the original battery it seems to have some battery protection circuitry inside the battery wrap, my new battery seems to have the leads soldered directly to the cells.

I'm wondering now if the TinyTV2 has proper charge protection built in already and if it would be safe to use this alternative battery together with a custom slightly larger case

 :-\ If your Pocket Arcade isn't connecting via USB, try using a data-capable cable and a different port. If it still fails, double-tap the reset button to enter bootloader mode and reinstall the proper TinyCircuits driver.

Yes, TinyDuino is a compact, Arduino-compatible platform designed for miniature projects and wearables. Many makers use it for small robotics, IoT devices, and prototype electronics due to its stackable, modular design.

Wirelings / Wirelings output only showing ...
Last post by cameron-kranz - October 29, 2025, 04:32:08 PM
I have a light, temp, and soil moisture sensor plugged into my pi hat. When i run the light test program, it outputs correctly, but then when I run either the moisture or temp, it just outputs 0.0 repeatedly. And then if i run the light again it also starts outputting only 0.0. It seems my I2C bus is being corrupted. Here is the output when I run a script 3 times that outputs the addresses on the I2C mux, each time with either the temp, light, or moisture sensor plugged in on port 0, 1, or 2 respectively.

New Product Ideas / Thumby 2 (Original Thumby Size...
Last post by ComeBits - October 29, 2025, 01:36:48 PM
Hello TinyCircuits Team,

I saw the incredible color mod that AncientJames created for the Original Thumby (Topic: https://forum.tinycircuits.com/index.php?topic=11412.0). It's a fantastic proof of concept for a feature everyone wants: a color screen in the super-tiny, key-chain size of the original device.

While the existing Thumby Color is great, we'd love to see a new version, perhaps called Thumby 2 or Thumby Color 2, that retains the pocket-sized form factor of the original.

My official product request is for an updated, miniature device with two major upgrades:
1. A Color Screen (like the successful community mod).
2. Increased RAM: The original Thumby's RAM is a well-known limitation for larger or more complex games. Doubling or significantly increasing the RAM would allow for much more ambitious projects—like running a fully featured color version of Doom!

An official product with the original small size, a color screen, and more RAM would be an absolute hit! Please consider this next-generation upgrade!

Thank you for considering this idea.
