Do you feeling bored with the ordinary LEDs? Would you like to have some different types of fun? Well, how about spice up your boring day with the BlinkM LED?

If you think that BlinkM LEDs are the same with other LEDs, then you’re totally wrong here! Did you know that the BlinkM LEDs could be used as the:

• Fader (BlinkM LEDs can fade from deep red to bright purple)
• Flasher (Same like the police patrol cars’ flash light)
• Incandescent bulb
• Flicker (Just like a candle)

The main goal of this project is to modify an old relay tester to control multiple BlinkM LED modules, by using wireless serial links! For this project, you’ll need an Arduino Diecimila, four BlinkM LED devices, four ATmega168, four 2400bps rflink receivers and a 2400bps rflink transmitter.

BlinkM is a smart LED and it’s to be designed to allow the easy addition of dynamic indicators, displays and lighting to any projects. Multiple BlinkM can be stranded together on an I2C bus to create an awesome light displays!

Since the BlinkM is programmable, you can create a mix of colors with different time slices and upload the sequence to the Blink. After that, it will show up the result and amaze the people with the assorted flicking sequences.
