Thanks! I used some rubber bands, but since I have a 3D printer now I am going to model them to fit the glasses

No problem. Have fun with it!

Awesome!

You're welcome!

You're welcome! :)

Dear André,I'm very sorry to let you know that I don't have the original design anymore. There is however a PCB that you can make the 3x3x3 LED cube with as an shield. I designed a PCB for it. You can find it over here: https://easyeda.com/yourics/Arduino_UNO_LED_Cube_Shield-efL3XfxrJ

Very well build. Was actually looking for one of these!

I would've never come up with this myself. Cool idea to reuse your HDD like this!

It looks so realistic! Very detailed as well

The design is amazing! Great job :)

It is included within the .zip file, but it seems like it has been removed for some reason.. Also the Android app is fully done and can be downloaded on my facebook page https://www.facebook.com/RGBFreak/

Now that's a cool idea! And a very cheap way to create these for your costume as well. I'm going paint mine so it looks like there is blood on them.

You could try, but I think it's a bug in the bambilight software

Any 1-2A power supply should be OK. Also you don't have to connect the power supply to your Arduino since the USB which transfers the data also powers the Arduino. All you have to do is look up how much power your LED strip can draw. In most situations 2A is more than enough. Also if thr LED's get too hot you could always reduce the brightness (variable somewhere at the top of the Arduino code). Keep up the good work! :)

looking awesome! Yes I have encountered a few of those bugs as well. Unfortunately I have not found a solution yet, sorry

Make sure to set the amount of LED's in the arduino code and software correctly. Have you done that?

Great article! Thank you for this :) I subscribed

This is very cool! I will make one myself :). Why do you say you need the Arduino PRO? It should work with any other Arduino too if I'm correct

Amazing idea! Who would have thought of this :D

Wow this is some really fine art! Shame they won't last forever. However my vote will last forever. Good luck on the contest! :)

So simple, but very unique!

Looks really amazing. Good job!

Why no Instructable?

In my case it was more about the fact that I wanted to create these shades completely from scratch. But nevertheless your ideas are a great way to do it as well. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks! Cheap and simple, but fun to make! :)

Thank you for this Instructable. Will make this for sure!I might even stick some printed design on the cardboard to make it look like a real piano :)

I made them! Although I did it a little different and designed my own PCB and used RGB LED's. I just posted my Instructable as well :) https://www.instructables.com/DIY-RGB-LED-Shades...Thank you for the amazing Instructable!ThankT

Yes! If you can think of it you can build it with Arduino, since the possibilities are endless!I'd love to hear back from you if you manage to get it to work.

Wow that looks impressive! Good job!

Really appreciate the positive energy! Have fun building it! :)

Thank you! :)

I got it as a birthday gift. It's from Aliexpress, but you can buy them almost everywhere

yes. It will work just fine

Wow nice!

Alright, thanks!

That look really nice!

Depends on the amount of LEDs. Pin 3 of the arduino

Hi! I used 5mm LEDs. If you still have to buy them I suggest looking for diffused LEDs, but normal ones will work fine as well

No. I'm just noob with Arduino lol

Thanks! Around 20-30 meters max

Thanks! Not really sure, sorry

Working on it right nos

It is possible to use it on TV, but you will also need a HDMI splitter and a RaspberryPi

yes that is the color of the strip itself. I nought black 60. 60 is a higher resolution (60leds per meter). Thank you! :)

Watch my video. It should explain :)

AMAZING! Thanks for your comment! :)

Great idea

That looks amazing! I just finished my LED cube shield :)

Thank you!

You're welcome! Thank you for the comment :)I will be doing a full video review on my channel as well: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKp8cQWkiGGfAV5FM_Q0mxA

Thanks! They are all over the internet :)

Lol! The laser can easily travel over 80 meters. I don't think you can use a IR laser though since the receiver is basically just a LDR. Maybe you could use a IR receiver instead? Not sure! Would love to know if it works, but unfortunately I don't have a IR laser module. If you decide to try it let me know! Thanks for your interest! :)

No this isn't possible without modifying the code. I think you could have the lasers flash onto the receiver and have the receiver read the amount of flashes in a certain period of time. Once the amount of flashes is lower than it should be the alarm goes off. The period could be 100ms for example, so it won't take a while to trigger the alarm.

Let me know if you can get it to work! I'm interested to see if it works. Good luck!

I think it depends on the amount of smoke. But one tip: Use mirrors. That's waaay cheaper and does the same ;)Thanks for your interest!
