NeoPixel family photo
In the long tradition family portrait photography, we pleased to capture these precious moments in time of BLINKY. This is the NeoPixel family photo by Adafruit Director of Imaging, Johngineer (John De Cristofaro).
Adding colorful LEDs to your project used to require a lot of pins on your microcontroller and complex code. With the Adafruit NeoPixels, those problems are a thing of the past. You only need one pin on any microcontroller to run a long string of pixels, and with our open source NeoPixel library, you can get your NeoPixels up and running in seconds.
Not only are NeoPixels easy to use, but they come in a wide variety of designs to fit your project. You can get NeoPixels in sewable form, long waterproof strips, in a ring, on an Arduino shield, on a stick, breadboard friendly and much more! Learn everything there is to know about Adafruit NeoPixels and how easy it is to use them on theAdafruit Learning System.
They’re all right here, in the NeoPixel section – waiting to brighten your days and nights.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
There looks to be a small (12 pixels), medium (hard to say, but guessing 16), and large (again, I’m guessing it’s 24) version of the NeoPixel Ring in this photo…. Is this a hint of what’s to come in the store? Or are you just messing with us.
24 version is on the way!
