InfiniPix

thingiverse

Inspired by Adafruit's Pocket Galaxy project... This infinity mirror with neopixels is twice as large and does away with an expensive battery setup. Parts required: 3D printed components Adafruit Trinket - https://www.adafruit.com/products/1501 16" NeoPixel Strip LEDs - https://www.adafruit.com/products/1461 470 uf capacitor 4" 2-Way mirror acrylic sample - http://www.tapplastics.com/product/plastics/cut_to_size_plastic/two_way_mirrored_acrylic/558 M3 x 35mm countersink screws with washer and nut To assemble, simply print the parts. Solder the 5V, Data, and Gnd wires to the NeoPixel strip, feed them through a small hole in the inner frame, bend the corners of the strip, and hot glue them into place. Solder the data wire to pin 1, and attach the 470 uf capacitor to the 5V and Gnd wires on the Trinket. You'll need to educate yourself on how to use the Trinket if you're unfamiliar with Arduino clones. After loading the program onto the Trinket, either power it with a 5V power supply or through a micro USB cable. Then, screw the frame together and enjoy!
