Luxeon RGB LED Light Saber

Luxeon RGB LED Light Saber


If you are looking for a new project that could be worked into part of a Halloween costume have a look at this Luxeon RGB LED Light Saber that George Hadley from Nbitwonder put together. The PIC18F2221 based Light The Led strip light will concentrate its light downwards into the room and has the capability to shine as broadly as a floodlight or as narrowly as a spot light, the choice is really yours.Saber is open source and has gone through lots of variations, you can see some of the project build details here. There is lots of custom features that are built into the device but since it is open you could simply download the code and make any modifications you would like to add if there is some feature you would like to have. You can see the first of many build videos below, be cautioned that the high speed camera movements might make you a bit sea sick. :) If you are still wanting to see more sabers on action take a look at the laser saber and the dual light saber that we featured here in the past.

Thanks George

“The RGBSaber project is an open source RGB Luxeon LED driver.These will reduce the glare. Designers suggest decorative pendant compact fluorescent light lights over a table or an island. An alternative option is a row of recessed downlight. The driver allows for PWM modulation of an RGB luxeon LED, allowing the color of the lightsaber blade to be adjusted to nearly any color in the RGB color spectrum.Thankfully, the range now encompasses every fixture and fitting that you could led tube imagine which means that all tastes and style have been catered to and no consumer should feel that they are missing out on anything. The current version of the lightsaber firmware supports 24-bit color, allowing for 16,777,216 different color combinations. The RGBSaber project, and all other NBitWonder projects,One of the great benefits from the low voltage Insulator range is that the budget range is still of a considerable quality and value.The term budget can often lead people to think that the cheaper alternative is going to be of a much poorer quality but that is not always the case. are made available under a Creative Commons BY-SA license.Ensuring that the low voltage downlight compact fluorescent fits in with the style and decor of the rest of the room is very important and in years gone by, this would not have been possible.”
