SparkL Motion, an Arduino-powered ribbon necklace

So you may have heard that  a few weeks ago in the US there was the Arduio Art Show in New York City. There was a huge range of talent from a wide variety of the arts, and I though that this one was a worth sharing. New Zealand wearable Arts had better watch out!

Jen Savage of Alpha One Labs combined her software and sewing skills to make this SparkL Motion ribbon necklace. Her first Arduino project, it is based around a Lilypad Arduino, and uses an accelerometer to detect motion and flash the LEDs accordingly. Full construction details and source code are available at her site. Jen's video can be seen here.
