Heart LED kit controlled by a Wii Nunchuck

Categories: Video, Wiimote Hack.

This LED heart was hacked so that it could be controlled by a Wii Nunchuck.

Video after the jump.

“Recently I ordered the kit for an OpenHeart: an LED panel in the shape of a heart that uses charlieplexing to minimize the number of I/Os required to address the LEDs. The instructions were great and I picked up some tips to make my soldering better. The author made it very easy, even providing a flash-based programmer that lets you define your animation sequence and writes the code for you, so for animations all you need to do is cut-and-paste the code into the Arduino IDE and download it.”
