Combine the potent PJRC Teensy 3.1 microcontroller with one or two Adafruit OLED or TFT displays to create graphical animated eyes as a silent alternative to animatronics. They move! They blink! They react to light!
This is an evolution of an earlier project — Animating Multiple LED Backpacks — which have found their way into many Halloween pumpkins and skulls and costumes. These next-gen eyes add a disturbing level of realism!
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7:30pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat and our Discord!
