Various LED art projects that I use for Apogaea or other festivals.
Bicycle
LED animations for my bicycle. LED strips, spokes, and hopefully more to come.
Goggles
Infinity mirror goggles, inspired/stolen from theindian08 on Reddit Previously this was Adafruit's goggle project. I added a microphone, some other animations, and a button.
Helmet
Some simple animations for a helmeted costume.
Monk
I saw LightStuff infinity mirror mask and wanted to make my own. Animations, button, sound reactive.
Vest
Fur vest with LEDs that make it glow. Inspired/stolen from the LED vest by Finominal. Check out their code.

Questions
How big is the Piddle PCB?
It measures 138.3 × 138 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Piddle use?
88 parts, built around the ESP32-DEVKITC-VE, INMP441 and WS2812B. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the Piddle KiCad files?
From the bskari/apogaea repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is piddle/pcb/piddle.kicad_pcb and its schematic piddle/pcb/piddle.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Piddle design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
