What can I say, I'm addicted to LEDs. I tried so hard to not make that cube above, but I failed.

- Forgeties79 1y agoPretty cool way to fail

- MomsAVoxell 1y agoDid you ever try to use LED's as an input device? My next LED cube project will be oriented towards trying to do that.
- stavros 1y agoHow do you mean? Like the magnetometer above? LEDs are outputs, no?
- MomsAVoxell 1y agoNot always, they can be configured to behave as photodiodes, too: https://www.codrey.com/electronics/the-led-photodiode-trick/ https://www.codrey.com/electronics/the-led-photodiode-trick/ This is also in my "TODO" list, maybe with the next magicShifter revision, or possible once I get the current new design booted and refactored, a bit .. https://www.instructables.com/LEDs-as-light-sensors/ https://www.instructables.com/LEDs-as-light-sensors/
- stavros 1y agoAhh ok, you don't mean WS2812s then, just plain LEDs. I don't really have any ideas for what to do with a photodiode, but I have some of those straight LEDs and I really want to make something with those. What kind of thing would you want to make with LEDs as inputs?
