LED Array Jacket

About

This starts out as an LED Array Integrated into an old Jacket I have. The driver IC is a max6952. The LED Array itself is pretty straightforward. Arduino will be used to control the output, as well as integrate future hardware

See it here:

Status

* LED Arrays Completed.
* LED Arrays wired to driver IC.
* Arduino was wired to the driver IC, until the TSA decided to unwire it.
* Rewired again, could use some cleanup.
* Rebuilt Left Array due to LED burnout as result of defective resistor on current ref.
* Bluetooth module has been acquired, but I have not had time to work with it yet.
