Cuttlefish Lights V1
Created at a hackathon (Won 2nd place). Initial hardware build and basic behaviors.
Project Overview
This project uses an Arduino Uno and a Sparkfun Spectrum Shield to make programmable LED lights react to music in real-time. Created during the 36-hour UF SwampHack 2020, we utilized fast-fourier transform analysis to isolate bass, mids, and treble frequencies, ultimately winning 2nd Place overall.
The Breakthrough
This is literally a video of me at 3 am the last day getting the lights to fully work and react to music. A hard weekend filled with bugs, but this moment is when all the hard work became worth it and that this project was possible.
The Demo
A picture of us demoing the lights to everyone after being told we won 2nd place. This project uses an Arduino Uno and a Sparkfun Spectrum Shield.
