For several years Lorraine waited for an easy to program and chainable RGB LED board. Since no one else has made one she decided to take matters into her own hands! Using every tool available to her Lorraine has created Solas: a programmable chainable multi-colored LED. This project has been in the making for years and is still in development
This is the first video of the journey of Solas from paper to reality. You decide what the next video will cover: the PCB design, the coding, the testing, the decision making, the ideas behind its name, its shape, each stage. What do you want to see more of?
