Wireless NeoPixel Controller

Business Profile

Core Value Proposition

Wireless NeoPixel Controller provides wireless real-time control of multiple NeoPixel strands using a NeoTrellis and Feather M0 LoRa, enabling on-stage light shows without line-of-sight or pairing and powered by Arduino and FastLED.

Target Customer

Makers, hobbyists, educators, and event/performing-arts technicians who design and deploy light shows using NeoPixels.

Key Differentiator

No line-of-sight or pairing required; long-range wireless control via LoRa-enabled hardware (Feather M0 LoRa and NeoTrellis) within an integrated Arduino/FastLED ecosystem.

Implementation Timeline

Not specified in the provided content.

Pain Points

1Traditional remotes often require line-of-sight (IR) to operate large NeoPixel arrays.
2Bluetooth/WiFi-based control can require pairing and may be crowded or interference-prone in performance environments.
3Coordinating lighting across multiple costumes or touring setups can be complex and hardware-intensive.

Key Features

1Wireless control of dozens of NeoPixel strands in real time
2Uses NeoTrellis and Feather M0 LoRa hardware
3Long-range wireless operation in crowded environments
4Powered by Arduino and FastLED
5Modular parts list (Feather, NeoTrellis RGB Driver, OLED, rotary encoder, etc.)
