The core idea is a ESP32S3 in a Bauble, ideally moves(inside or outside of Bauble), ESP32S3 is on a PCB we make

Roughly basing on the Seeed Xiao breakout board and the Seeed Xiao. decoration is the breakout board and for now we use an off the shelf XIAO. But future we make our own board with XIAO footprint. So splitting the development.

But later swapping in something like this for the XIAO board: https://jlcpcb.com/partdetail/3198295-ESP32_S3_WROOM_1N4/C2913197~~
xiao is too easy, just getting a packaged ESP32S3 is not much harder and much cheaper
This board: https://oshwlab.com/chris_9044/sandtable_copy Changed to this packaged chip(same footprint, more ram, need to remove amp) https://jlcpcb.com/partdetail/3198302-ESP32_S3_WROOM_1N8R2/C2913204
Next step is to make an EASYEDA project copied off this.
Probably I2C as main comms? << max 20cm and even then, only if you're on the moon? Battery? Charger/wires actuator/motor driver LED
##Decoration ideas Bauble is an eyeball?
Bauble moves?
Bauble has tentacles?
Probably there is a light.
Power board from a few of these LED coils, coil on top of below Bauble: https://www.adafruit.com/product/5140
