August 04 Dance-reactive Electro Swing NeoPixel LED Dress Tutorial
This polka-dot dress lights up when I dance! ✨
I added 216 individually addressable NeoPixel LEDs, with one light hidden behind each polka dot. A motion sensor makes the dress flare up when I move!
The whole system is powered by an Adafruit RP2040 Prop-Maker Feather running CircuitPython. It’s wearable, rechargeable, and programmed with multiple animation levels so the lights respond differently as the movement intensifies.
Build your own with my complete Adafruit Learning System guide:
