Olympic rings for WS2812 lights

thingiverse

I designed these rings to create an Olympic LED light display for the living room. Five rings were printed - three solid, two "broken" and they were woven together to match the Olympic symbol. WS2812s were installed on the inside - I used 30LED/m style so they weren't too crowded. The data pins and voltage pins were connected, and code was uploaded directly to an ATMEGA328 chip (standard Arduino will work).\r\n\r\nI used a 5V 8A (40W) power supply, although these should not draw more than 3.5A at peak with the code I am running. I never go full white, and even then it would be 5.4A.\r\n\r\nVideo of the lights in action can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-todcTl1NH8\r\n\r\nMy code is available online at: https://github.com/thesoftwarejedi/Arduino/blob/master/olympic-leds/olympic-leds.ino
