It's annoying to have to guess what 0-255 LED color value corresponds to the color you want in your project. This eliminates the guesswork.

Thank you for liking and following my #PERSEUS-9 homemade mobile 6502 computer! Recently, I used this computer and its onboard homemade floating-point interpreter to calculate the closest approach distance and other information about the asteroid 2023BU, which approached Earth on January 27, based on published orbital elements.

  Are you sure? yes | no

Thank you for liking my #6802 Serial Terminal ! I bought a Maksutov type astronomical telescope made in Moscow in 1995. Maybe it used Soviet era technology.

  Are you sure? yes | no
