IU2FRL Lightsaber

This repo contains the python code of my lightsaber

Original project

Original project comes from the Lightsaber Prop-Maker RP2040 by Ruiz brothers

Changes

The original project was too weak and had some design flaws, I decided to improve it and create my remix

Hardware

1. Adafruit RP2040 Prop-Maker Feather
2. Push button
3. Led strip
4. Mini speaker
5. Lithium battery
6. Mini switch
7. 3D printed parts
8. Some wires

Auto deploy

Configuration

1. Create virtualenv in root of project: python -m venv venv
2. Activate virtualenv: source venv/bin/activate
3. Install requirements: pip install -r requirements.txt

Deploy

After the environment has been set you can deploy to the board using the RUN and debug button

• Full deploy: will copy all files and libraries (slow)
• Python only: will copy only *.py files (faster)
