Building off of the teddy bea<\/a>r and xmas light<\/a> projects, I added the LED panel and switch to our xmas tree! This way, friends\u00a0would be able to leave us a holiday message we could view and turn our xmas lights on\/off. Perfect addition to the tree!<\/p>\n

Code used: holidayScrollingText
\nWiring:<\/p>\n

SURE 24X8
\npinCS1 = 9
\npinCS2 = 8
\npinCS3 = 7
\npinWR = 5
\npinDATA = 6<\/p>\n

RELAY
\nIN = A0
\nVCC = +5v
\nGND = GND<\/p>\n

Thoughts for next year:
\n– Socket based so that light switching can be in real-time
\n– Better live stream capability (with less delay)
\n– WiFi (CC3200)
\n– Resolve accent encoding (eg. Ma\u00eblle become Malle)<\/p>\n
