(90 minutes).
In this workshop we'll discuss various methods for controlling LEDs, and build a RPi-based controller that you can take home with you.
<p>The project is based on the Raspberry Pi, Flask, Websockets, PCA9685 chip and analog RGB LED strips. We will be using code similar to <a href="https://github.com/sasha42/LED-controller">this LED controller</a> project that I've built. The workshop will start with a brief overview of various methods of controlling LEDs, and then dive into a hands-on workshop where you will build your very own controller!</p>
