Holiday Light Automation. Digital LEDs. WLED on a ESP32

Presented By: Tyler Rudie

Digital LEDs are great for those non=static holiday lite displays. How do they work? The WLED sftwr package tells them what to do. You run WLED on an ESP32, which something similar to a Raspberry Pi or more to an Arduino.(from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ESP32:)

ESP32 is a series of low-cost, low-power system on a chip microcontrollers with integrated Wi-Fi and dual-mode Bluetooth. The ESP32 series employs either a Tensilica Xtensa LX6 microprocessor in both dual-core and single-core variations, Xtensa LX7 dual-core microprocessor or a single-core RISC-V microprocessor and includes built-in antenna switches, RF balun, power amplifier, low-noise receive amplifier, filters, and power-management modules
