Re: Calling All Coders!

We created four different animations for our Masterkeys Pro M White.


The first one we created was a Keyboard alarm where you input how often you want to be reminded to get up and stretch(I personally use 60 minutes) and then it will flash every x minutes to remind you to get up out of your chair.


The next animation was what I call the Hadron Collider. This animation has two "atoms" flying towards each other until they explode. The explosion is bright where the two atoms meet, but the brightness goes down the farther away the explosion is.


The third animation we made was my personal favorite and it took by far the longest to make. What we did was we had the keyboard light up the letters of the alphabet in order with the beat of the Alphabet song. The Alphabet song actually plays as it does it! We even did the "Now, I know my ABCs. Next time, won't you sing with me?" where it lights up each word according to the beat.


Finally, we made one called Bouncy Ball where the "Ball" bounces around on the keyboard with the LED's behind it leaving a lighter and lighter trail.

If you want to download them, just go to http://maker.coolermaster.com/custom-lighting/ and scroll down to the Masterkeys Pro M White section!

Overall, we really enjoyed making these animations. The programming and SDK setup wasn't hard. I just have to thank Cooler Master and CMBrandon for giving us this opportunity.
