Altitude Controlled LED Jacket Changes Color as You Climb
When your climbing gym throws a “glow in the dark” party, how can you stand out? For [Martijn], the answer was obvious. He made a jacket adorned with 32 WS2812 addressable LEDs whose color is addressable depending on the altitude to which he has climbed.
The build is centered on an Arduino Pro Mini with a barometric sensor and an NRF24L01 for radio comms. A pair of pockets contain AA batteries for power, and he’s all set to climb.
A base station Arduino with the same set-up transmits an up-to-the-minute reading for ground level temperature, which is compared to the
