Hi all,
I want to create a wearable on my shirt pocket with the TFT Gizmo that uses an IR remote control people can click to snap a picture of themselves standing in front of me and have it display their pic on the TFT. Seems like it should be easy enough except for how to capture the image.
1) Is there a way to attach a camera to the circuit playground?
2) Will you ever get in more bluefruit circuit playgrounds?
------------------------
Check my Parts List:
Circuit Playground TFT Gizmo - Bolt-on Display + Audio Amplifier - JST PH 2mm
Keyfob 2-Button RF Remote Control - 315MHz
Circuit Playground Bluefruit - Bluetooth Low Energy
-- a camera but which ??

Re: You-ie (Selfy wearable)
Almost all the Adafruit guides that use a TFT + Camera are Raspberry Pi based. That would be an easier way to go since there is a clear roadmap and plenty of system resources.
If you want to experiment with a Camera and CircuitPython checkout the OV5640 Breakout. This would not be a good match for the Circuit Playground Express due to pin / RAM requirements.
