- djmips 9y agoDo you have any more information about your project?
- zitterbewegung 9y agoYes, I think I prodded my brother to write a blog post but I will write it myself and try to get to it this weekend. But basically the steps you would have 1. Get a Raspberry pi (obviously) and load linux with python support. 2. Use this shield https://www.amazon.com/Pimoroni-Unicorn-Hat-Shield-Raspberry/dp/B00RTQEP7M/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1501164329&sr=8-4&keywords=raspberry+pi+led+shield https://www.amazon.com/Pimoroni-Unicorn-Hat-Shield-Raspberry... 3. Create a python script that blinks with the HZ that was in the Nature paper.
- celticninja 9y agoI think I saw someone else try a similar thing with an oculus rift or vive. How do you think it went with your relative.?
- zitterbewegung 9y agoI have no idea. We never did any controlled experiments. Also, I didn't notice a difference anecdotally.
- fluroblue 9y agoDid you notice any improvements?
