CF LED Ring Expansion
Re: CF LED Ring Expansion
Hi,
This is a pretty broad and hard question
What can be done with the LED ring is to set independently the color of the LED quickly from the Firmware, after that the only limit is the imagination .
The basic things we have though about where:
- Simple sequences (eg. spinner)
- Fixed patterns
- Pattern that changes with the copter sensor values
For all these ideas we have functions implemented in the firmware, making such a function is the way to go to make your own pattern: https://github.com/bitcraze/crazyflie-f ... ixelring.c and there is a thread on the forum on how to program the ring http://forum.bitcraze.se/viewtopic.php? ... 218&p=6861
Other things are possible and for example the ring is used as a marker for camera tracking of the Crazyflie: https://twitter.com/chromebookbob/statu ... 5700246529 and http://forum.bitcraze.se/viewtopic.php? ... 291&p=6988
