DIY Hyperion Ambient TV Light Project (Raspberry Pi + Arduino) Complete Setup

-Check out my GitHub page for written instructions & wiring diagrams, including code for the Arduino & Raspberry Pi WiFi setup. If you are missing settings like Baudrate or something else I show, Go up the the WRENCH in the upper right corner and select “Settings Level“...Change to Advanced or should show more options you may not see. Why I use an Arduino - from researching the forums on the Raspberry Pi GPIO pins provide approximately output, while the LEDs require a 5V signal. While many people have been able to make the setup work without the Arduino, other find the LEDs flicker and don’t function properly. Alternatively, you could use a Level Shifter that would “Up“ the voltage from to 5V to solve this problem, but the Arduino was a simple fix for me. Feel free to look up “Level Shifter“ in the forums. ::SOFTWARE:: -------------------------------------------------------------- Arduino Software can be found here: https:
