Access Circuit Playground Express sensors from PyPortal

Post by aioue »

Circuit Playground Express and the PyPortal have STEMMA connectors.

Is it possible to connect the devices together and access the LIS3DH triple-axis accelerometer and NeoPixels on the Playground, with code on the PyPortal?

If so, are there any examples please (CircuitPython)?

There's no plug-n-play way to do it. But, you could connect them via serial, have code on the CircuitPlaygroundExpress that reads sensos and sends the readings over serial to the PyPortal that reads and uses them.
