I have finally gotten the hardware in (mostly) working order for my wacky fiber optic light suit. Let's check out what I've done!
Details from a project upgrading an old incandescent lamp to utilize addressable LEDs
Are you crystal, gem or mineral collector? Display them in style with an underlit display.
This visually pleasing project has endless possibilities for customization and design.
Let's figure out just how fast we can push data through APA102 pixels. Then let's look at what we can do with super fast lights.
Instead of buying expensive, one-color LED kits to attach to your helmet, use SparkFun addressable LEDs!
Don't have time to make a costume this year? We have you covered with this cute, super-quick costume for all ages!

Great project!
By phase I just meant the wheels were out of sync a sequence of encoder counts; (0,1) (1,1) (1,2) is not indicative of one wheel traveling…
