And many people have created easy methods of controlling the color and brightness of individual LEDs in LED strips. This workshop will show you a couple of easy and fun ways to control LED strips, and to make them do what you want. I'll show you everything you need to know to use existing Arduino programs -- and how to hack Arduino programs -- to control the colors in your world with LED strips.  \r\n  \r\n**Workshop Itinerary:**  \r\n* Intro to color theory and Red-Green-Blue _(RGB)_ LEDs  \r\n* Brief intro to Arduino  \r\n* How to use an Arduino to control an LED strip  \r\n* Some demos of programs you can download for free  \r\n\r\n**Materials cost:**  \r\nThe workshop is free, but if you would like to partake in the hands-on aspects of the workshop, Mitch will have materials for **€20**.  \r\n  \r\n_**Optional:** Bring your laptop if you want to go home with the free Arduino software installed on it._\r\n_Arduino software runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux (any version is fine):_  \r\n[Arduino software](https://www.arduino.cc/en/software)","duration":90,"slot_count":1,"content_locale":"en","do_not_record":false,"image":"http://program.why2025.org/media/why2025/submissions/NKZWRM/35C3_LEDstrip_tunnel_w_LED_strip_demo_58F8Kfu.jpg","resources":[],"slots":[13263],"answers":[]}
