[EDIT]<\/strong> Please check out the newest version of the FX Code (v0.51)<\/a> with Android Bluetooth Control App and Chrome Control Extension.<\/p>\n

[EDIT]<\/strong> Fixed a really dumb problem in the Arduino code, added a color picker to the python GUI, and uploaded a new video demo. The problem was I was using if<\/strong> (serial.available()) and should have been using while<\/strong>. That gummed up the works and made the LEDs flicker if you moved the sliders too fast. That’s fixed now. Should have waited and tested better but I was all excited to get this posted- live and learn, or more likely just repeat the same mistakes and correct myself as I go along.<\/p>\n

Here’s another revision to the FastSPI2 effects demo code<\/a>. Some code cleanups, a few new effects, and a python GUI (gtk). GUI can select effect by name and control brightness, delay, color-step, hue, and saturation of various effects.<\/p>\n
