The new SparkFun STCC4/SHT40 Qwiic CO2 Sensor is a simple indoor air quality breakout that measures CO2 concentration.
While most sensors measure estimated CO2 concentration, this uses thermal conductivity to directly measure actual CO2 concentrations.

The XRP wasn't designed to be a "build it once and move on" robot. Start with Blockly, move to Python, add sensors, experiment with autonomous robotics, keep going.
It's less about one robot, and more about how far you can take it.

The idea behind DMA is straightforward: instead of having the CPU repeatedly move data between a peripheral and memory, configure the DMA hardware to do the transfers for you. The difficult part is figuring out how all the pieces fit together.

We threw one of our GNSS receivers off a building. And then ran it over with a truck.
We knew the Facet FP was tough, but we didn't know it was Tacoma-proof.
