Ambilight

Postby Andrew Davie » Sat Feb 20, 2016 11:04 pm

I built myself an ambilight. This is a string of LEDs that sits behind the TV frame, and each LED in the string lights up according to the colour of the TV picture at the edge adjacent to it. It’s pretty simple to build, and cost me about $50 all-up. Quite amazing, really! This short video clip on YouTube shows how cool it can look.
