I finally had a chance to revisit this project and added a few more patterns that use the accelerometer and magnetometer. You can now change the color of the dodecahedron just by rotating it or placing a magnet near it. No video to share yet, but …

I tried to control my BlinkyTiles with a Spark Core, but I ran into the same problem as when I tried an Attiny85: there's no DMX support. FastLED requires either DmxSimple or DmxSerial to control BlinkyTiles, and those libraries haven't been ported…

Hey, no problem. Thanks for the shout-out on the blog! Unfortunately, I've been busy with other projects and haven't had a chance to continue the series yet.

Ah, sorry, wrong link. Here you go:

It works! I assembled another dodecahedron, but this time I used an Adafruit Trinket Pro 3v, LiPo battery and charger backpack, and an accelerometer, and packed it all inside. I added a few switches for power, brightness, and pattern selection. I…

I've updated the project with a full tutorial on getting it hooked up and running. I plan to follow-up with another one to walk through creating custom patterns from scratch using FastLED. Please let me know if you have any question, comments, sug…

I started to try defining the interrupt setup for the Gemma, but I'm afraid that's still a little over my head.

I'll make a proper BlinkyTile + FastLED tutorial. I assume more people would have access to an Arduino than a Teensy, so I'll base it on that. I can cover getting the software and library downloaded and installed, how to wire up the BlinkyTiles an…

Cross-post from another discussion: http://forums.blinkinlabs.com/index.php?p=/discussion/comment/477/#Comment_477 I wired my BlinkyTiles up to a Teensy 3.1 (also tested and worked fine on an Arduino Uno) and got the ColorPalette example by Mark Kr…

Looks like FastLED already supports DMX via the DmxSimple library (which I apparently already had, I think it comes with Arduino). I wired my BlinkyTiles up to a Teensy 3.1 (also tested and worked fine on an Arduino Uno). I just wired up the data …

Thanks for the update Matt. Does this mean there's no possibility for Teensyduino and FastLED compatibility, or just that it'll take more time and effort? What kind of LEDS are in the tiles? WS2812? I assume I can just use a Teensy instead of th…

Sure, no problem. I started with "The Simplest BlinkyTape Program" here: http://blinkinlabs.com/blinkytape/processing/ I slightly modified it for the BlinkyTile (since mine has only 12 LEDs): https://gist.github.com/pup05/42dc985a6dbf166dd203 Ple…

Hey Ethan, Thanks for the response! * I moved this discussion to the new BlinkyTile category, thanks. * I totally understand that you're just getting the hardware out and are still working on guides and documentation, no problem, and no rush. * I'…
