Raspberry Pi-Powered Majora’s Mask Flashes To Music

Raspberry Pi

If there’s one thing the Raspberry Pi can do, it’s help bring fantasy worlds to life. From realistic props to interactive decor, makers have been known to create some seriously fantastic Pi-powered creations from imaginative works like movies and video games. Today, we have another such creation to share with you from a maker known as Aesz14 over at Reddit, who created a copy of Majora’s Mask, from video game The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask, and programmed it to respond to sound by flashing LEDs.

The entire project is driven by our favorite SBC, the Raspberry Pi. According to Aesz14, it uses 100 individual LEDs including 2 that are reserved just for the eyes. A microphone listens for audio which triggers the color and brightness of the LEDs to change. The pitch of the audio as well as its intensity will determine the effect in real time.
