LED Dome Head with Raspberry Pi and Fade Candy

This was a wearable art piece that I made for Burning Man 2017. The frame was designed in Autodesk's 123D and cut on a X-Carve CNC machine. A Python program running on a Raspberry Pi manages input from the buttons on the chest (animation select, speed, and random mode) as well as output to the addressable LEDs. A Fade Candy by Adafruit is used to help smooth the lighting effects. There is a 5 inch HDMI monitor mounted internally for the wearer to see. It is connected to a low light, fish eye lens camera on the chest. The system could run for hours on a bank of 5V usb batteries worn on the back. The dome was mounted on a BMX chest armor, which made it very stable and easy to move in.
