How to Use NeoPixel 16 Ring With Arduino Uno
Today, I am going to show you how to use NeoPixel Ring with Arduino Uno a very basic type. As you know, we love colorful LED's, even it has been established on a ring!
The need list:
1. Arduino Uno
2. NeoPixel Ring 16xWS2812 (with 16 embedded tiny neopixels)
3. Your Pc, to upload Arduino codes, loaded Arduino IDE
The Codes and Connections
You will see there are two files on the attachment.
Put the rar file extracted onto libraries >> Arduino >> libraries >> paste all files here as a neopixel folder in.
Then use the codes.txt onto Arduino IDE to upload codes to Arduino Uno or whatelse you have as a board.
You will use only 5V, GND, and Arduino PWM side's pin 6 only on this example.
The picture on the attachment is the connections of Arduino Uno and NeoPixel Ring as between.
My source is based on Adafruit: https://learn.adafruit.com/florabrella/test-the-ne...
What is next is: using two neopixel rings together! Check the second video.

That's all !
