Glow-Up your Festival Coat - DIY Tutorial with WLED - Glowing Fur Jacket

from Adafruit Industries · host Adafruit Industries

Glow up your festival coat with programmable LEDs! ✨ In this DIY wearable tech tutorial, we’ll show you how to add addressable LED lighting to a faux-fur festival coat and control it wirelessly with WLED - a free, open source LED control program. The lights are sound reactive, smartphone controlled, and completely customizable — with tons of colors, animations, and effects to choose from. This project is beginner-friendly and requires no coding. Set up different lighting zones so the cuffs and fur trim can run their own effects, giving the coat a much more dynamic look than a single LED strip. Perfect for Burning Man, EDM festivals, concerts, costumes, nighttime events, or anywhere you want to be a little more visible — and a lot more glowy. ✨ In this project: • Smartphone-controlled LEDs • Sound-reactive effects • Multiple lighting zones • Custom colors and animations • WLED control • No coding required • Beginner-friendly wearable electronics Full step-by-step tutorial: https://learn.adafruit.com/glow-up-your-festival-coat-with-wled/overview #LEDs #WearableTech #FestivalFashion #WLED #DIYFashion #LEDClothing #BurningMan #FestivalOutfit #Adafruit #Maker Visit the Adafruit shop online - http://www.adafruit.com ----------------------------------------- LIVE CHAT IS HERE! http://adafru.it/discord Subscribe to Adafruit on YouTube: http://adafru.it/subscribe New tutorials on the Adafruit Learning System: http://learn.adafruit.com/ -----------------------------------------
