Interactive Spooky Pumpkin with Kypruino or Arduino

The Interactive Spooky Pumpkin is a fun Halloween themed STEM project that combines electronics, programming, RGB lighting, and 3D printing into one interactive build.

Using a Kypruino board and its built in NeoPixel RGB LEDs, the pumpkin comes to life with colorful lighting effects, creating a spooky and eye catching decoration. The project is beginner friendly while also providing opportunities to learn programming, electronics, and creative design.

Perfect for makers, students, workshops, Halloween events, and hands on STEM learning activities.
