Title: Paradise Arcade Kaimana RGB LED board
Post by: armi0024 on October 15, 2013, 02:00:21 pm

Set up for 15 inputs and 12 out put LEDs, but that number of outputs can be expanded greatly to nearly 100 RGB LEDs
This is made to monitor button pushes and respond independently of a computer control.
We have LEDs for every button on the market that will work with this board.
We also have an adapter board that will allow regular RGB Anode LEDs to work with this board.
This board is USB programmable and uses the open source Arduino environment.

The Hina board will be released in the future with the goal of LED Blinky compatibility and a much larger repertoire of computer controlled LED functions

Outstanding!  I am however curious to see how the parts themselves look.  Any pics of the hardware?  Also, what would the cost be?

 ??? Wait. So this could be used without a PC setup? Say in an original hardware or multi-board build?

34.95 with .100 headers or open solder holes.
39.95 with screw blocks installed

Sorry I am out but the board is mean to be spliced directly into common ground set ups.  It has connections on each side so to insert into an existing mutligame all you would need to do is clip and strip the signal wires at a common point, and place the wires into the matching points so the signal is still transmitted and the Kaimana is inline monitoring action.

The main place this board was designed for was fight stick controllers, however it may be used very easily in original hardware, multigames and more.  You can do everything from have the buttons and joysticks respond like is shown in the video to adding a series of Rgb led strips to a machine that go into attract mode when none of the controls are used for a period of time....
