#neopixel — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #neopixel, aggregated by home.social.

  1. I think maybe once a year I order a #PCB and it's perfect on the first try. That just happened to me with this project. I don't have anything to change on my board layout and my AI coded firmware worked perfectly on the very first shot. This christmas tree is one of several circuit board christmas ornaments I'm working on. I'll have them for sale in about October. The brain is an atmel 328pb microcontroller and the leds are ws2812-2020. Most of the other components are decorative. #electronics #neopixel #PCB_art

  3. Finally found some time to bring my #NeoPixel Heart PCBs into a usable state and add some documentation. The #sourcecode is hosted on @Codeberg at codeberg.org/rommudoh/NoisyMcH and works for both variants (big and small).
    I think I'll publish the #KiCad files soon, too.
    Thanks to #platformio I can use the same code for both hardware variants.

  4. A highly optimized Art-Net and sACN pixel controller for GD32 Cortex-ARM microcontrollers, built around a Timer → DMA → GPIO architecture for deterministic timing, minimal CPU overhead, and maximum output efficiency.

  8. Success (well, 80%) with my first real soldering-required project!

    I have a board with components that can power three (different) Neopixel shapes in a (prototype) Lego enclosure.

    Need to make lots of nice 8x8 pixel art and fonts now though, and get a properly designed Lego box.

    The only problem is a wonky connector for my third Neopixel — I'll have to resolder that.

    I also have software so that I can change everything through Wi-Fi.

  10. Here are the boards! I soldered a first one by hand, but the #WS2812B #LEDs are very close to each other. So some have burn marks. Hot air is no option, it would burn them up. So, I bought a hot plate and tried again. It's so much faster and easier! And it worked directly after #soldering.
    I only need better solder paste, this one was difficult to clean.

  11. Soweit, so gut. Der Kegelaufsatz ist nun auch beleuchtet, die meisten Verbindungen verlegt.
    Fehlt nur noch der #ESP32 in der Bodenplatte und dann kann ich die #Weihnachtspyramide einmal komplett aufbauen.

  13. @cjdell I've gone down a different route. I've bought some -S3 minis instead. The one I plugged into a breadboard is connecting fine to my WiFi. Also, I was having problems with a mucking up the display and I have none since swapping over 6 hours ago :-)

  15. 3. Ebene fertiggestellt und mit fliegender Verkabelung getestet. Mit nicht mal 150 mA ist das auch noch im Rahmen als Dauerverbraucher, wobei ich den Programmcode später noch ein wenig ausbauen werde.
    Nun wird's aber langsam Zeit fürs Bett.

  17. Спасаем ARGB: Как я заменил сгоревший китайский хаб на ESP32 с веб-интерфейсом

    Год назад я собрал систему с пятью бюджетными ARGB вентиляторами Aigo AR12 с 6-pin разъёмами. В комплекте шёл хаб AR12-2012 — типичная китайская плата с 5 портами для вентилей, SATA питанием и выходом на материнку для синхронизации подсветки. Всё работало. Красиво светилось. Но ровно год . Однажды утром вентиляторы крутились, а подсветка — нет. Хаб умер. Покупать новый за $15-20 не хотелось, тем более что я знал: внутри этих вертушек сидят обычные адресные светодиоды (WS2812/SM16703-совместимые). А раз адресные, значит можно управлять с ESP32 .

  22. Considering options for volumetric LED cube. Am trying to straighten pebble lights in these tubes. There is a back channel signal wire currently superglued & I pulled this through with a thread. Thoughts on support to glue lights to & straighten? Grateful for technique & material ideas. #leds #neopixel #pixelblaze

  24. Building more lamps with #neopixel rings and #esp32 connected to #homeassistant -designing new compliant mechanism cases that snap together beautifully - very happy !- and more custom pcbs and added accelerometer and capacitative touch to change lights on tilt and touch through the cases printed with #prusa . Not quite sure where this is all going but enjoying the process of just making and exploring engineering things better - space included to added power control and lithium battery too..

  25. Hey #electronics @hackaday @adafruit

    If you needed to make a #Tron -like backlight effect for white plastic (ie. 3D-printed, thin enough to diffuse) to reproduce the "living" effect used in the original film, has anyone already done this? Is there a well-known git repo with the code at the ready?

    I have lots of #Neopixel as well as older style analog RGB LEDs kicking around, either system is fine.

    Ideally, I'd like to be able to make it "surge" like in the scene where Flynn, Ram and Tron find the pool of "power" and drink it, or when Sark becomes infuriated and says "Take Him!" in the scene with Dumont.

    (our Instance now has 10k limits in the toot, but still only 1500 in the alt text, so here's the rest of the alt text below lol)

    The oval and squares appeared on the chest of the titular character in the movie Tron. Tron was not the protagonist of the film - that would be Kevin Flynn, a genius programmer from the real world - but was a Hero in the classical mythology sense, a mighty warrior in the digital fantasy world of the film (known as The Grid).

    Tron was a Program, written by a User, like all Programs that lived on The Grid. Without getting too deep into it, there's a very large program called The Master Control Program who was originally a chess game, but has established a tyrannical regime by integrating other programs into its own code and murdering their personalities.

    The MCP has a system of brutal police type programs and a somewhat Vader-like toady named Sark, and they enforce an anti-User hegemonic propaganda campaign, in which those who believe in the Users are religious nuts, who are punitively made to play to the death in gladiator "video games".

    Tron is the mightiest of these: when first seen, he is fighting four Programs whose light is red in colour rather than the blue of the good guys in the film in a disc battle, at the end of which he holds his disk skyward, in a gesture to his User creator. Ram, another program, tells Flynn, "That's Tron, he fights for the Users."

    The Gimli FSHS ("Gimli Fishes," a play on words that denotes the fact that our community relies heavily on commercial fishing from Lake Winnipeg) is intended to be an organization focused on data sovereignty by any means necessary. We fight for the users.

  29. Von den #makers da draussen, kennt jemand einen guten Shop der ein gutes LED Strip Sortiment hat? Suche Strips die #neopixel kompatibel sind bei:
    - 5V
    - Rgbw
    - 3535 und 5050
    - hohe LED dichte pro meter
    Gerade die 5V sind wohl ein Problem...

  35. Made another lamp experiment with a 60 led #neopixel ring linked via #esp32 to room occupancy on the smart campus with #homeassistant - will rework the cases and reprint the covers with different thicknesses of filament I think ?
