Lilytiny with USB port (Mini Arduino-Compatible E-textile Controller)
Light up your clothing by sewing the Lilytiny into your next outfit! Just plug in a MicroUSB cable and use the Arduino IDE to program.
No more breadboards and wires in your favorite fabric projects! This little sister to the Lilypad USB is an Arduino-Compatible e-textile control board with super small size! Just sew onto the conductive pads of the board with conductive thread to create a circuit! This is the greatest way to work with smart e-textiles while keeping a small form factor!
This Lilytiny has a MicroUSB port right on it for easy powering and programming compared to other Lilytiny boards! Just plug it straight into your computer with any MicroUSB cable! Arduino-Compatible so you can use it with the Arduino Software!
How to use your Lilytiny:
- Prepare your fabric
- Sew your Lilytiny onto your fabric
- Sew any sensors, LEDs, or other electronic components to your fabric
- Connect the electronic components to the Lilytiny's pads using conductive thread in place of wire
- Now that you have your circuit, plug your Lilytiny into your computer using a MicroUSB cable and program it (or load the code you've downloaded for your project) using the Arduino Software.
- Plug your USB cable into a battery pack or sew a regular battery pack between 7 and 12V to the VIN and GND pads of the Lilytiny.
- WATCH YOUR OUTFIT COME TO LIFE!
