DIY Addressable RGB LED Strip Controller

Postby Northstrix » Tue Jul 16, 2024 8:55 am

The Lantern project is an ESP-based addressable RGB LED strip controller.

It employs two ESPs: an ESP32 with a Nintendo Wii Nunchuk connected to it, which functions as a remote, and an ESP8266 connected to a WS2812 LED strip, which acts as the receiver and drives the strip.

The Lantern project offers 32 different modes and employs basic cryptographic features (that at least prevent separate transmitter-receiver pairs from interfering with one another).

The tutorial is available at: https://www.instructables.com/DIY-Addre ... ontroller/

You can download the archive with firmware from one of these sources:
