This week I reworked my Light & Time project by changing the look and feel of the bracelet. I decided that the first iteration’s remote Arduino and battery pack would not be so convenient or stylish, so this time I am using a Lilypad Arduino and accessories. The Lilypad Arduino is small and powerful, and the bobbin and battery holder help make the whole set-up more compact. I began by rebuilding my circuit onto these new pieces and programming it with the original code.

(Apologies for the poor contrast)

I decided to go with the leather bracelet look for this iteration, so I then measured out the fabric, cut holes for the LEDs (3mm this time), and positioned my circuit into place.

Here is the almost-finished version, modeled in its bracelet form. Not bad!
