Carrie Anne Philbin<\/a> has been very busy recently with her Raspberry Pi Foundation duties. Now she’s back in her guise as the\u00a0creator of the Geek Gurl Diaries videos<\/a>!<\/p>\n

Her new video tutorial takes you through from connecting up the SenseHAT to having the movement sensors on the HAT trigger a behaviour on the LED matrix to create an ‘interactive pet’. She also covers the design of your ‘pet’ using various tools and coding everything up in Python 3.<\/p>\n

It’s a great tutorial, as we’ve come to expect from Carrie Anne, and well worth looking at if you own a SenseHAT or if you’re thinking of buying one<\/a>.<\/p>\n
