The project is a multi color changing calendar/alarm clock. It is designed for the people who struggle to attend and get things done during their day. This alarm clock calendar pairs with the users apple calendar, icalendar, and will say out loud what tasks/activities the user has during the day. One example is if the user puts on their Apple calendar that they have Seminars at 12:00 PM on Tuesday, it will notify them by saying that you have seminars on Tuesday along with changing colors. The user can customize the color of the clock so when they have an activity to attend to, it will change colors to their personal preference. 

The object is made of a white cloth covering the polygon/cone shape. It will be powered by an ESP 32 and coded on Arduino and will make the LED shine through the whole object when the user has a task. 

This object is an interesting way of organizing the users day to be less drowsy and more amazing and open. While this Pandemic is happening, this object will be a good way to keep the user from forgetting tasks/activities that are important to them. 

NeoPixel LED Strip

Liam Brady

LED Strips are individually addressable ribbons of RGB (red green blue) lights, meaning that each light on the ribbon can be controlled by itself and give off any color on the visible color spectrum. Every light on the strip has its own chip onboard that processes commands given to it by the Arduino.

 

NeoPixel Library

#include <Adafruit_NeoPixel.h>

Adafruit_NeoPixel strip = Adafruit_NeoPixel(30, 6, NEO_GRB + NEO_KHZ800);

void setup() {
  strip.begin();
  strip.show();
}

void loop() {
  for (int i = 0; i < strip.numPixels();  i++) {
    strip.setPixelColor(i, strip.Color(255, 0, 0));
  }

  strip.show();

  delay(100);
}
