1. Gesture-Controlled LED Coffee Table with B.L.O.X. Final Presentation Josh Pack | Esther Kim | Ryan Dwyer Project #16 December 7, 2012 ECE 445 Fall 2012 TA: Lydia Majure

2. Introduction Our goal is to have a fully functional coffee table with an LED matrix display surface that can play BLOX using motion sensors. Features of the LED BLOX Coffee Table include: Rows are removed when full Randomize next piece Game ends when a piece reaches the top row Drop, move, and rotate are controlled with motion sensors

10. Low-Side LED Drivers Texas Instruments TLC5940NT –16-channel, constant-current sink –Output current determined by single R REF Up to 120mA/channel; using 20mA/channel –12-bit/channel grayscale control –Two clocks: data shift (SCLK), grayscale (GSCLK) 30MHz each; limited by 16MHz clock of Arduino 120µs to shift in grayscale data for 10 drivers (1920 bits) 256µs to complete one PWM period
