LED display and clock
My latest project. I’ll write this up properly at some point. The plan is that it usually displays the time and scrolls messages when instructed to over the serial port, and possibly more.
BuildBrighton White Night Workshop - Badges
These are the results of the Light Brigade workshop run by the BuildBrighton hackerspace as part of the White Night festivities.
The workshop involved soldering together these badges consisting of an RGB LED, a microcontroller, battery, IR LED and IR receiver. The badges have a unique ID which is represented as a colour on the LED. They constantly transmit their ID using IR, other badges can receive the transmissions and collect colours which they cycle through on the RGB LED. They also have a zombie game mode where a badge can become "infected" and flashes red. It will then infect all other badges that receive its transmissions.
