Physical computing/LED tutorial - Programmable APA102C RGB LED strip using FastLED

Aurora Borealis. Northern Lights. How to realise timed animations with APA102C or NeoPixel RGB LED strips using the FastLED Arduino library and gradient palettes This tutorial explains how to set up a programmable RGB LED strip for an effect with independent colour and brightness transition by coding; the example is a very slow aurora borealis lighting effect, depending on a gradient palette you can specify yourself or grab online via palette knife. A solution that can be changed to simulate light passing through clouds or any other very subtle natural looking light modulation by simply specifying another gradient palette and changing the timings You can get the list of parts, BOM, wiring schematic and Arduino code at https://github.com/systembolaget/Physical-computing-LED-tutorial-8a-Programmable-APA102C-RGB-LED-strip Share this video https://youtu.be/yA8sPFrLLoM
