1D-Fireworks

Description

Last new years I decided against getting fireworks. It's just too harmful to the environment. Instead I build this "reusable" rocket out of a d1 mini microcontroller and a WS2812B LED-strip. It is "lit" by pushing a button.

The code is based on Carl Rosendahls project that can be found here:

Neat. How about a POV burst? Watch it go up, then scan your eyeballs to see the burst. Just an idea - dunno how well it would work.

Nice. 👍 Now if you install a bunch of these in a star arrangement, you could have starburst "fireworks".
