Are you working on some type of board that only turns on one light at a time to create a much more smooth appearance? So that when you hand flys over that a whole board goes off! It wold be better if each individual light had its own sensor!

[oskay]

@HDMSFlight Yes. :)

[fromdeepitcame]

What kind of sensors are you using? IR? (sorry if this has been asked one thousand times)

[oskay]

@fromdeepitcame Yes, IR.

i would make a long hallway with that so you would never have to turn a light on you just walk through it

[oskay]

@bradforabit That's a really good idea. Hmm. I have a hallway....

[avalableusername]

Yes. A big long seizure-inducing hallway..

me gusta mui bueno

[HDMSFlight]

@MrOtterWulf ya that would make more sense!

[MrOtterWulf]

@HDMSFlight I think that maybe not using one sensor per LED but rather just using a few sensors and using a processing unit to analyse the two(or more) signals, determining where the LEDs should light up would be better, - kinda like a pressure sensetive surface with 4 sensor points. ;D Also, replying to 4 month old message, I'm late. :u

if you can make hudreds of them, and put them on a pretty strong surface where the sensors can still detect heat, you can make a fucking cool disco floor.

@HDMSFlight well that's a lot of work, and with that many sensors, the tablet would be HUGE like billboard huge, and the lights would be to far from each other, maybe when there are like super small sensors it would be possible.

holy shit man, how long it take u to solder them in series?

[JSWISTN]

[Funnyjake011]
