A new guide is on the Adafruit Learning System: Bluetooth Controlled NeoPixel Lightbox
This guide describes how to build what’s commonly called a light table or lightbox. It places a light behind the guide sheets, writing paper, and more, making it much easier to see through. Light tables are also handy for slide photography, tracing, and reading film x-rays!
You can buy a simple one fairly inexpensively, or a professional quality one for much more. But that’s not what Makers do; we build our own!
This guide uses the Feather nRF52840 Express as the controller for the project. It provides plenty of processing power to work in CircuitPython and, more importantly, it has a solid Bluetooth capability. The parts are 3D printed.
Are you interested in using light boxes in your work or hobbies? Let us know in the comments below.
