Fun with LEDs and Arduinos
Meet Tenaya Hurst and her LED glasses. Hurst is an educator who was at CES for Linino and Doghunter.org. The glasses and LED dog are her designs. She constructed them using simple Arduino-based modules from Doghunter and Linino plus a software framework called LininoIO. Basically it lets uses write programs for controlling simple hardware like LEDs using script-like commands that are fairly easy for non-technologists to understand. Users write applications using Node.js, a platform built on Chrome’s JavaScript runtime for constructing network applications. Apps can also be written in widely used languages such as Python, Bash, etc., for controlling modules and all the devices they contain.
