Light Dances to Music
In ProgressMy second hardware project — an ESP32-based sound-reactive LED matrix display. Reads sound levels from a KY-037 sensor and visualizes audio with dynamic light patterns on an 8×8 WS2812B RGB LED matrix. Features multiple animation modes based on sound intensity, creating a mesmerizing visual response to music and ambient sound.

Buggy Robot
ShelvedBuilt during my Manchester Uni foundation year — and I got it moving! Started with the university's Arduino in C++, then attempted a Raspberry Pi version independently in Python. Both the Arduino and the old Raspberry Pi eventually broke, ending the project — but I learned loads.
