Cloud Costume Animations

Post by zekekoch »

[I posted this in the Trinket forum, but thought that you might be interested in what you can do with the trinket]

Here's a link to the halloween costumes we made for our kids.

They had matching cloud costumes (a trinket, some neopixels/ws2811's, a super simple rf radio and a USB battery). My wife had an umbrella with neopixels playing raindrop animations. I couldn't use the trinket since I used 112 lights.

The code for the umbrella and clouds uses AdaFruit's NeoPixel library and is posted here:
- https://github.com/zekekoch/Raindrops [umbrella]
- https://github.com/zekekoch/CloudLight [clouds]

The code isn't very elegant, but it might help some folks get started. It took some time shrinking it down to make everything fit in 4k. I now know how to get 5.25k on the trinket which would have been a lot easier!
