USB Disco Dance Floor

Posted by timothy on from the know-how-to-party dept.

pi42 writes "Some MIT students built this USB controlled disco dance floor for their dorm lounge. It was built in a week, has 1536 LEDs, 20,000 hand-soldered connections, and is capable of displaying 12-bit color. Check out videos and photos." You can even send the floor an email, though it might not write back.

  1. nice idea, where is the howto by nietsch · · Score: 1, Troll

    If You RTFA, you'd have noticed that they are so busy patting their own backs, that they forgot to post a real howto. where are the schematics, the PCB layouts, the blueprints for the design? Nowhere to be found, but you can sure see who is the ueber disco geek.

    Why is this on /.? Some geeks wanking their dicks?
