Coding:
The LEDs are alive! Although we are still trying to figure out how exactly the LEDs will work with our magnetic switches since they seem to be finicky, but the beam sensors are up and at it! There is noticeable lag when powering 30 versus 150 Neopixels, so trying to figure out just how much voltage to issue is another problem to figure out. Nick also figured out how to "fade" the lights when it was changing colors so the change wouldn't be so sudden. In addition our breadboards are experiencing overheating resulting in the melting of some of our components (we need to go buy another magnetic switch...).
We've counted out how many Neopixels we need for each side, so we cut those and much soldering was involved.
