| - | * I need a few but consistent libraries for this project and the problem is that these libraries take up a lot of internal space (especially the Firebase_ESP_Client). Therefore the ESP32's internal memory is almost full. An immediate disadvantage is that you cannot upload a very long schedule. But this is a minor problem overall as it can be easily resolved using an SD Card to save the schedule. | + | * I need a few but consistent libraries for this project and the problem is that these libraries take up a lot of internal space (especially the Firebase_ESP_Client).

| - | * Hardware challenge: You need a lot of equipment to implement this project (as you can see I've used a lot of cables). Also the ESP32's connections are faulty so you would have to either solder the wires or attach the ESP32 module to a breadboard. But, once the connections are stable, the satisfaction comes immediately. | + | * Hardware challenge: You need a lot of equipment to implement this project (as you can see I've used a lot of wires).

| =====Conclusions===== | =====Conclusions===== | ||
| In this project I've managed to implement a small RGB Ledbar with functionalities similar to those available on the market. It is an entertaining tool and a very good initial prototype for light show enthusiasts. Certain refinements and tests need to be done to make the user experience as enjoyable as possible. Overall, I consider the project to be a success. :-) | In this project I've managed to implement a small RGB Ledbar with functionalities similar to those available on the market.
