SKELEYES

Convert a song into a simple json peak map for our raspberry pi to flicker eyes on plastic skeletons. It's not going to be a perfect frequency map as the goal is to flicker the eyes by adjusting the brightness without turning them off. The Raspbery Pi will be controlling a handful of 12v 'Eagle Eye LEDs'.

Note

This is just meant for fun halloween props at the house. It has no real purpose other than adjusting the brightness levels for the eyes on some of the props in our front yard while playing music at the same time. If anyone else finds it usefull, I'll be pleasantly suprised :)

Simple JSON Map

For simplicity, just output the (time, brightness) to a JSON file. In this example we are controlling the brightness at the 1/10th of a second intervals which is ... fast for a long song
