If you haven't attended all your ugly sweater parties this winter, you might have time to do this last-minute Blinky Sweater Project to have the "coolest" ugly sweater at your next party :P It uses a chipKIT Fubarino Mini, one of the smallest chipKIT boards out there!

To make this simple and fun project yourself, head to Instructables!

3D Printer fans and accessory lovers, check out this MakerBot Thingiverse chipKIT uC32 and Breadboard Holder Thing! Maybe a little silly, but kinda fun nevertheless. Download it now and print it today!

QEMU (short for "Quick EMUlator") is a generic and open-source machine emulator/virtualizer, and now a port of QEMU for PIC32 MCUs is available, which means some chipKIT boards are now supported! The supported families include PIC32MX7 and PIC32MZ, and several boards including chipKIT Max32 and chipKIT Wi-FIRE are among the list of supported boards.

Serge has posted some of this information on the forum,

Congratulations OpenBCI for showing up on EE Times article "Open Source Hardware Advances Science, Technology" as one of the five items they chose to feature (right up there with the mention of Elon Musk and Tesla's decision to open up their patents)! Well done!

Take a deep dive into the hardware of the chipKIT Uno32 in this #ThrowbackThursday post that features a March 2012 article from our friends at Nuts & Volts Magazine. Fred Eady, the author, talks about the Arduino hardware model, describing it as "a perfect example of a universal electronic cluster design." Eady discusses the serial USB interface in depth, and also examines and explains the schematics for powering the chipKIT Uno32 board. Finally, he ends with a deep dive into the Basic I/O Shield, the code libraries
