Arduino: Support of NeoPixel Sticks/Strips/Rings
NeoPixel provides a collection of various RGB LEDs, that can be controlled by a single pin. See e.g. https://funduino.de/nr-17-ws2812-neopixel
With the configuration block one can determine the number of pixels and the connected pin on the arduino board. Maybe one also have to determine the shape (Ring or not?).
The programming block should allow at least to access each LED (Pixel) individually, e.g.
pixels.setPixelColor(2, pixels.Color(0,150,0));
Sensebox also needs the NeoPixel library, see #todo, maybe Calliope/Microbit also can support it
At our school we would like to work with the new Funduino Cube (https://funduino-aio.de/) and the Open Roberta Lab. However, there is still no way to control the NeoPixels. Will this feature be integrated soon?
