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.

Results of MPU6050 Accelerometer and Gyro Breakout 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

MPU6050_WLED

Latest version no longer uses touch features; instead, it uses three switches for better user interface. Features are nearly the same. Find the latest version in the folder: MPU6050_WLED_withThree_Switches. Note: must use the new variables.h file; as variable names have changed. First time use; edit variable values to match your network nd configuration. Latest version.

Developed by William Lucid with assist from OpenAI's ChatGPT. Only partially finished; has not been added directly to running WLED, project is a work-in-progress. Will need a usermod to be added and compiled for WLED. Sketch was developed to generate varialbles to send WLED Controller using MPU6050. Generating Effects, Intensity, and
color palette variables of WLED Project. WLED Controller tested and runs on ESP32.

WLED "List of Effects and Palettes

Plan is to use a wand/paddle with the MPU6050 attached; user could "wave" the wand/paddle effecting changes RGB leds, WLED "effects," "intensity," and "color Palette."

Using MPU6050_WLED. Project:
1. Requires WLED Controller, ESP32, MPU6050
2. Read "Operation of Switches.pdf" for switch operation.

Sir, have you used the WLED ESP32 Music Addressable LED Strip Controller?

Yes, project development was done using this WlED controller; costing just under $25 it is solid, well worth the cost. I have not used the microphone input.
