“Best of Adafruit” Photo & Video Series Day 60 #photography #art #design #wfh #bestofadafruit

Throughout this week, the Adafruit photo team will be posting a “Best of Adafruit” photo each day!

Check in as we take you back to all of our favorite photos and videos.

For our day 60 post, here’s a different kind of face mask! Why not bring the costume ball indoors? Learn to adorn masquerade masks with LEDs, three ways!

The above guide will show you how to make three masks at different difficulty levels:

Super Simple Sequin Mask: A few LED sequins and a battery pack, no programming or microcontroller required! Just a little soldering and gluing will get you illuminated accents in under an hour.

NeoPixel GEMMA Mask: If it’s color-changing animations you crave, wire up some individual NeoPixels, and a GEMMA microcontroller. Use our sample code or write your own animations! 1-4 hours, depending on your soldering experience

Audio-Reactive Mask: A microphone monitors audio levels and uses loudness to control the brightness of some LED sequins. Use our sample code or mod it up to do something different. 1-4 hours, depending on your soldering experience
