The RGB Eyes reference design consists of a pair of 3 x 3 RGB LED matrices that can be controlled be easily controlled by ARC to display robot animations and emotions. A unique feature of this display is that it uses an on-board microcontroller to PWM drive all the LEDs which uses a low amount of current. This project requires licensing.
