Step 7Fireplace and Fake Fire
My wife picked up this old fireplace mantle at an antique show. I used wood puddy with black spray paint to give it a weathered fireplace look.
For the fake fire, this was easy as the Arduino and AS3Glue library have pulse-width modulation (PWM) built it was just a matter of tweaking the PWM parameters to simulate a flickering fire with Red LEDs. The Magic Mirror software has the option to use the LEDs like this as a flickering fire effect or instead you can also use them as indicator LEDs (telling you how drunk you are to compliment the videos tellying you how drunk you are) for the Breathalyzer.
