What it is
Pandabie is a small pet panda designed to sit on your desk and react to his environment.
The board includes a microcontroller, display, motion sensor, and environmental sensor in a compact PCB design.
Why?
I designed Pandabie as my first week project for Half Life
Software
firmware/ contains one Arduino IDE sketch for the XIAO ESP32C3, with all of Pandabie's firmware

Questions
How big is the Starbie PCB?
It measures 95.9 × 85.1 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Starbie use?
8 parts, built around the DHT11. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the Starbie KiCad files?
From the PenguinKG/starbie repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pandabie/starbie.kicad_pcb and its schematic pandabie/starbie.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Starbie design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask PenguinKG before reusing the design.
