Description
NEOFLASH is a RGB LED panel with 192 RGB LED(24x8). When you program this Unit, please pay attention to the sequence of the Neopixels. From top left (Where PIR placed) to right, and top to bottom.
Connect this unit with M5Core via GROVE PORTB Single-Bus. We put Magnet on the backside, which means you can attach this to any metal surface. When you plug the GROVE PORTA into M5core, you have convert it into 3 extended GROVE A laid on the side.

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- Grove
- Grove is a plug-in connector ecosystem for sensors and modules that avoids soldering and jumper wires. Grove compatibility matters because it can make it quicker to add supported I2C devices, as long as the cable and voltage are suitable.
- IDE
- Short for Integrated Development Environment, a program used to write, run and manage code. It matters because some learners prefer a traditional coding workspace instead of a guided notebook-style lesson.
- LED
- A light-emitting diode is a small electronic component that lights up when current flows through it in the correct direction. In this kit, LEDs create the flashing effect, so polarity and correct soldering matter for the project to work.
- NeoPixel
- A type of addressable LED system where colour data is sent along a single digital data line from one LED or controller to the next. Compatibility matters because the timing and signal format must match for the lights or driver board to respond correctly.
- PIR sensor
- A passive infrared sensor detects changes in heat, usually from a person moving across its view. It matters because PIR sensors are common for lights and alarms, but they can miss people who are present but not moving much.
- RGB
- Short for red, green and blue, usually referring to an LED that can mix those three colours. It matters because controlling an RGB LED teaches how separate outputs combine to create different colours.
