MiP Power Up: D1 mini
July 3, 2026 ยท View on GitHub
A D1 mini adapter board for WowWee Labs' MiP robot. Similar to the MiP ProMini Pack, this board adapts the D1 mini and compatible boards to MiP. Install the D1 mini in a pair of pin headers and you'll be programming MiP to connect to the Internet in no time.
Acknowledgment
- As always, a big "thank you" goes out to adamgreen. Without his help I'd still be wondering why my MiP won't talk to an Arduino. Now, it's talking to the Internet!
- I'd also like to thank Casey Kuhns who while at SparkFun developed the original ProMini Pack and the ProtoPack which provided the foundation for this project.
