This is a small project of mine with a Sparkfun RGB LED (www.sparkfun.com), a Propeller Chip (www.parallax.com/propeller/), and a small python program on the PC. Kinda neat! Imagine the possibilities from a computer-controlled color cube! Music is "Sol" by Justin Bianco (homepage.mac.com/justinbianco)

  • as mentioned, the color chooser is the standard GTK+ widget. The program itself is a thin wrapper in python to send serial data to the chip.

    This is as simple hardware-wise as it can get. There are 3 pins output to each of the red, green, and blue leds. These are brightness controlled through PWM. Simple
