Raspberry Pi LED Controller Build

[Pete]

Looking good John! Those RGB LEDs are fun to play with. At my last job, I did the firmware and linux drivers for our lighting controller. It was an FPGA controlled board that could drive 4, 300 light strips independently. Those lights were used in the cabinet of a slot machine, and had an interface that allowed our game designers to program light sequences and effects that were timed to the game and game events. You can see them in action in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJVtvLMnJ_4 I have a bunch of other lighting videos on my phone that I can't upload to youtube, but could show you some time.

One of these days I'll be able to make it to a meeting again and check out all the cool projects people are working on.
