Neopixel Ring Articulating Mount

What’s better than Adafruit’s individually addressable smart RGB LEDs – an articulating mount to house them! This assembly is designed to hold the 12 LED RGB(W) NeoPixel Ring (e.g. Product ID:2853; https://www.adafruit.com/product/2853). The dimensions of the ring are: 3.68mm (O.D.) x 23.3mm (I.D.) x 325mm and the board fits in snuggly.
The components have holes for 3mm screws and will need to be threaded with the appropriate sized tap. The ball joint can accommodate a 30 mm screw with a nyloc nut instead of individual screws.

I have added a diffuser that snaps on top of the LED mount. It is preferable to print the part in a translucent clear material, e.g. PETG with supports enabled.

The NeoPixel mounts were designed to fit into a miniature photo studio

The mini studio has not been uploaded to Thingiverse yet but any sturdy box will do !

The NeoPixels are controlled by a Raspberry Pi - and a flask-based web server for a RGB color picker to control the NeoPixels.

See https://github.com/uozuAho/pilights for flask app to control LEDS.

Code has been modified to run with Adafruit Neopixel Rings and run as systemd process at startup. See https://github.com/electronlove/MiniStudio and web folder for additional information!
