Motion Show

Status: in the works. Wiring and reference firmware will be published in the carpe-tech GitHub organization.

What it does
#

A motion sensor triggers an RGB LED strip and plays sound through an I2S amplifier. It started life as a Halloween pumpkin, but the combination fits plenty of other builds: a doorway greeter, a display case, an alarm.

What it teaches
#

Sense, then react with light and sound: one input driving two different kinds of output.

Parts (planned)
#

  • PIR motion sensor
  • Addressable RGB LED strip (WS2812)
  • I2S amplifier (MAX98357) and a small speaker
