using a yellow pcb, add some LEDs on the back like my wordclock pcb and figure out how to control them (possibly an esp12, I would need 6 pins for charlie plexing the 26 letters)

    I've made some screenshots to get started, to anyone interested: watch episode 3 of season 1 to get colors and fonts and wallpaper colors!

Ooh, here's an extravagant idea!  Add some sort of touch sensor for each letter (capsense pads?), then make it so you can pair a badge with another and light up the other badge's letters by touching yours.  Maybe add an accelerometer, then make it so you have to turn your badge upside-down to communicate.

Are you planning on making it like the Christmas lights with letters underneath them?

  Are you sure? yes | no

davedarko wrote 08/11/2017 at 16:08 • point

yep, maybe an ESP12 that "reads" stranger things tweets... but this is just an idea drop, I'll hack something together on vacation :)
