Sooo … I ditched the logic analyzer and pulled out my scope and … I'm afraid I have to peel off that label again.

Because I don't know if that looks like #WS2812 to you, but it sure doesn't to me. Apparently there's a short pulse, followed by a another pulse that's either short or long. I guess that's the binary encoding.

I'm open to suggestions which #LED protocol that is.

Alt text has some more details and timings.

Strange electronic devices that you have partially reverse engineered should have a label explaining why they are strange electronic devices and what you have reverse engineered.

Earlier this month, I reorganized my #studio. Things that settled into their place over the last few years now sit in containers, rather than in open piles.

It's the first autumn with newly constructed buildings next door, so I've got a lot less light in the room. To offset that, this weekend I rolled out a bunch of #RGBIC strips to boost the ambient lighting, and a #Litra lamp for my #WFH Zoom calls.

Feeling good about my #workspace, so I twisted on the 10-22mm for this #battlestations shot.

OK today I'm looking for my #smartlighting #homeautomation nerds for advice on a plan for #RGBIC #LED #programmable #lighting.

About to buy a few hundred feet of Govee strips for what will end up as lighting highlights stretching the full height of a 2-storey wall in our house (~30 feet total).

But it's not a solid wall of LEDs. Will this be super fun? Look stupid/too much? Be too hard to program well if it's 6 separate strips? Plan is to enable sync w 100' TV screen via camera. #AV
