Need some inspiration for your next project? Check out some of these related tutorials tagged with time! Instead of a GPS module, try using a Real Time Clock (RTC) or grabbing the current time from the Internet. Or modify the code to display the time using addressable LEDs or an RGB matrix panel. Want to save your LCD or micro OLED from burn-in? Try adding code to turn off the display and wake it up using a distance sensor. Better yet, make an analog clock made out of LuMini LED Rings!

Teensy Arduino Shield Adapter Hookup Guide

A basic introduction and assembly guide for the SparkFun Teensy Arduino Shield Adapter.

Sunrise Machine with the Tessel 2

Are you to sleepy to enjoy a sunrise on a brisk morning? Yeah...us too! No worries, with a Webcam, a Tessel 2 and a bit of code you can sleep in and catch the sunrise at your leisure with the Sunrise Machine.

Wireless Remote Weather Station with micro:bit

Monitor the weather without being exposed to it through wireless communication between two micro:bits using the radio blocks! This is useful if your weather station is installed in a location that is difficult to retrieve data from the OpenLog. We will also explore a few different ways to send and receive data.

OpenLog Artemis Hookup Guide

How to use and re-program the OpenLog Artemis, an open source datalogger. The OLA comes preprogrammed to automatically log data. The OLA can also record serial data, analog voltages, or readings from external Qwiic-enabled I2C devices. Some of these Qwiic-enabled devices include GPS/GNSS modules, pressure, altitude, humidity, temperature, air quality, environment, distance, and weight sensors.
