Good Mornnig,

Created a sketch that creates variables: "effects," "intensity," and "color pallete" for use with WLED. More details about the WLED can be found at: WLED Project

Sketch runs on ESP32 or ESP8266.

OpenAI's, ChatGPT assisted on the project.

Project results

Github repository of MPU6050_WLED project

Short video of WLED running

Shows WLED Strip of RGB leds lighting effects, intensity, and color palette.

Plan is to use "paddle/wand" to create changing RGB lighting effects, intensity, and color palette of WLED Controller output. Should work with any WLED Controller as only uses HTTP api. "Paddle/wand" has been named "Chromawand."

Regards,
William

It's exciting to see the development of this project using WLED and the incorporation of the MPU6050 accelerometer and gyro breakout. The addition of the "Chromawand" as a way to control the RGB lighting effects, intensity, and color palette is a creative solution. It's impressive that the project uses HTTP API, making it compatible with any WLED Controller. The short video provides a great visual demonstration of the project in action. Well done to the project team and ChatGPT for their contributions.

Thank you Anna Gomes; your appreciation is well received. Today I uploaded to Github the latest version.

Latest Version of Project

Version 04/10/2023; "MPU6050_WLED_withFive_Switches.ino" no longer uses touch features; instead, it uses five switches for better user interface. Additionally, a potentiometer is used to adjust delay between sending of URL to WLED Controller. Features are nearly the same. Find the latest version in the folder: MPU6050_WLED_withFive_Switches. Note: must use the new variables.h file; as variable names have changed. First time use; edit variable values to match your network and your configuration. Find neteork configuration in network.h.

Latest update 04/15/2023: "MPU6050_WLED_withFive_Switches.ino" now includes WiFi Manager with OTA firmware uploads. Switch testing is now a stand alone sketch; used to confirm correct wiring of switches.
