RGB LED weatherproof flexi-strip - 30 LED (1m) _MAKE_ROBO_KITS Crystal Graziano

Crystal Graziano

we have a detailed tutorial with lots of information about the VS1053 as well as instructions for how to use our Arduino library that will get you playing sound effects in under 30 minutes

but for now

The Sharp IR Distance Sensor (20-150 cm) measures how far away an object is by detecting reflected infrared light and outputs an analogue voltage that can be read by a microcontroller

RGB LED weatherproof flexi-strip - 30 LED (1m) _MAKE_ROBO_KITS Crystal GrazianoThese 1m LED strips are fun and glowy. There are 30 RGB LEDs per meter, and you can control the entire strip at once with any microcontroller and three transistors. The way they are wired, you will need a 9 12VDC power supply and then ground the R G B pins to turn on the three colors. Use any NPN or N channel MOSFET (although the big powerful kind is good for a large strip) and PWM the inputs for color mixing. For powering, a good 12V supply is key.
