ProtoFace

Firmware for a Protogen suit visor on the Raspberry Pi Pico 2 W. It drives two NeoPixel chains across 11 or 14 panels of 8×8 LEDs, plays animations from an SD card, reacts to sound, and takes commands over Bluetooth LE.

  • SD card animations: .anim files, with start.anim loaded at boot and the rest picked over BLE
  • Sound reactive: each LED is static, snap or volume-scaled, and frames can advance on a loud sound
  • A command line over BLE: list, load, play, next, bright, status…
  • A fallback frame when the SD card is missing, which you can draw yourself in the AnimFile Maker

Latest release: V6.1 · Sep 28, 2026

AnimFile Maker

Paint both sides of the face LED by LED, mirrored or flipped, preview it in a simulator that reacts to your mic, and export a custom fallback frame. Windows, macOS and Linux.

Extend the radar

Addons are plain JSON files: radar sites, map overlays, places and themes. Nothing in one runs as code. Copy a link from the catalog, paste it into Tools → Addons, and you're done.
