Diffused Individually Adressable LED Strip

[Giiman95]

So I found this on Adafruit:

https://www.adafruit.com/product/3869

 

Anybody seen something like this in lamp form or in a longer strip (15-16 ft or 5 meters)?

It’s kinda like the ones in the recent Khan Flicks robot fight video.

 

Much thanks.

Yeah mate,

 

I am pretty sure you can hook up a normal LED strip and connect it via raspberry pi/arduino etc and give each LED their own unique identifier. 

 

A mate of mine did it and it worked pretty darn good.

 

I can ask him if you are interested.

They're commonly referred to as Neon rope light or at least they try to simulate it. They are the same as addressable or single color LED strips so they come in various lengths.

Thanks for moving it for me. I wasn't sure if this qualified as modding or not.

As for your suggestions, the ebay link is close to what I'm thinking, but needs to be longer and hopefully, cheaper.

EDIT: Just looked at the sparkfun link. That's it! Now I need it longer.

Thanks for the search term. At least now I can try and do my own research. 

 

I'm going to leave this open if anyone else finds something before I do.

Hey thanks for the reply.

I've got the Arduino setup already rocking with an indivudally adressable LED strip and Led Panels already hooked up.

Right now I'm looking for either a material to diffuse my current LED strips (to give it that certain effect) or a pre-made solution with diffusion already setup.

Hey mate! 

 

Why don't you set up a potentiometer to diffuse the light? Or do you want it automatically done rather than adjusting it with the potentiometer?

 

EDIT: You can also attach an ethernet shield to the arduino to do it from a web page.
