Where to download Flora sketches?

Post by Torracat »

I have installed everything the tutorial says to install. I have uploaded the demo code given by Becky Stern's tutorial and it seems to be working properly. However I cannot find any animation code to upload and I have no idea how to write it. The libraries don't seem to have any. Where can I find basic codes for animations for the Flora?

Heres what I'm looking for:
1) A Fade effect for a string of 10 neopixles (D6)
2) A scroll effect for a string of 9 neopixles(D9)
3) A blinking effect for individual pixles (D12)

I would also like to know what the code would look like with all these processes together in one upload, if that makes sense. I don't know how to write them all in one document, if that makes sense...

Thank you in advance. I'd appreciate any help I can get.

There are no libraries of existing animations.. there are too many things people want to adjust, all of which tend to require new code.

We do have a tool that will let you generate NeoPixel animation code from an image:

But beyond that, working with programmable hardware eventually requires knowing how to program. Our Learn Arduino series of tutorials can help you get familiar with the tools and several tasks that show up in most projects:

and we have hundreds of projects in the Learning System that include various kinds of NeoPixel animation. We're also happy to help people learn programming here in the forums.

Thank you. I think I found something I can work with. I think it really does come down to learning some fundamentals of coding and how the coding components fit together, mix and match. I'm here for that ride. thanks again

In case anyone comes across the need for stuff like what I am asking for, i found a page that touches on the fundamentals of writing this particular kind of code yourself see below
