Octolively Kit - Blue - Tileable Interactive LEDs
Discontinued
Octolively modules are tileable, interactive LED surfaces that respond to nearby motion with gentle, complex lighting effects. Each module features eight ultrabright 10 mm blue LEDs paired with infrared proximity sensors that detect movement — even in total darkness.
Modules tile edge-to-edge in any rectangular arrangement, from a narrow 4-inch strip to a full wall. Each module is self-contained with an on-board microcontroller, so no central computer or complex wiring is needed — just provide 5 V DC power. Array size has no effect on performance.
Key Features
- 8 Ultrabright Blue LEDs – 10 mm LEDs spaced on a 2-inch grid
- 8 IR Proximity Sensors – One per LED, detects motion even in complete darkness
- Seamless Tiling – Modules connect edge-to-edge in any rectangular configuration
- Self-Contained – On-board microcontroller; no central computer required
- 8 Built-In Effects – Switch between modes with a button press
- Open Source – Fully open hardware and software design, built to be hackable
