Auto-Calibration in Action
These are some of the pictures of how the panel auto-calibrates when a translucent glass is place above the sensors.
Specifications of the Interactive LED Panels
Introduction
The Interactive LED Panels are Open Source modules which illuminate when an object or hand passes over the self calibrating infra-red sensors. The LEDs then fade according to a pre-set pattern which can be programmed using the Arduino IDE.
Applications
Applications of these Panels are as follows:
- Interactive Bar tables
- Interactive Home tables
- Stairs that light up at night
- Music Interface
- Dance Floors
Patterns
Modes that are Included:
- Ripple
- Slow Fade
- Reverse Fade
- Sparkle
- Instant
- Instant (fast)
- Power requirements per board: 5V, 120mA / Consumes almost nothing when LEDs are all off.
- Maximum Number of interconnected boards per power supply: 8 Boards
- Maximum Number of interconnected boards: 1000+ Boards
- Maximum Current per 8 boards: 3 Amps
- Maximum Infra-red Sensor Distance: 20-25 cm
- Software IDE: Arduino
- LED Type: SMD and Through Hole
- Can work through Translucent/frosted Glass (Auto Calibrating)
Other Info
Panels are in the beta stage. With enough funding, boards will be sold as a complete product as well be implemented into furniture to make them interactive.
Arduino Power Interactive LED Panel
Check Out My latest Interactive LED Modules, which are powered by Arduino. They are open source modules which are still in their beta, stage. They will be available soon.
