Super handy project from Pete Warden up on Hackster.io.

The tutorial also points to our Adafruit Learn System Guide Getting Started with Raspberry Pi Pico and CircuitPython by Kattni – thanks for the shout out!

I have a similar problem at my desk, where I have a fan that I’d like to keep pointing at my face as I type.
