- A computer with internet access and Wi-Fi
- The robot, a Raspberry Pi, and code from the previous chapter
- An APA102 or SK9822 LED arrangement
- A logic level converter (also known as a shifter) with at least two channels
- Some double-sided sticky tape
- Precut jumper wires for breadboard connections
- Optional: If the level converter or LED stick comes with separate headers, you will need the following:
- A soldering iron and stand
- Soldering iron tip cleaning coils
- Some solder
- Safety glasses
- Fume extractor
- A well-lit stable desk to solder at
- A second breadboard (to use to hold the headers in when soldering)
