Ambilight clone running on RaspberryPi B. I'm running the latest (at the time this was published) raspian release "jessie". On top of jessie im running Hyperion to control the LEDS and sync them with the video input into the USB frame grabber. Results are pretty damn good. Hyperion also has an iOS and Android app to control the LEDs. Ill be posting a parts lists, configuration tutorial and my Hyperion Config files in the coming days.

I was inspired by these video tutorials and how-to articles but they are a bit out of date.

I decided to take what i learned from these and start over. It ended up being a super easy project for a beginner and the results are great.

Stay tuned ..
