From the project
Blinkekatze, a replacement PCB to turn cat themed night-lights into interactive light displays
This is a replacement PCB for one version of cat themed night lights available via various online retailers.
It adds a number of RGB LEDs, sensors and wireless connectivity, enabling an interactive light display synchronized over a large number of Blinkekatzen.
The Blinkekatze is comprised of three PCBs: - The main board (this directory) - The USB board (located in /usb-board) - The original power- and mode-switch board from the nightlight
