Light Show
Light Show is a toolkit for composing, validating, and executing synchronized lighting and mechanical performances on vehicle hardware. It provides a framework for creating complex shows that integrate audio tracks with precise lighting patterns and the movement of mechanical components.
The project utilizes a structured data format to define sequences, allowing for the granular control of individual light segments, intensity transitions, and interior display states. It includes specialized utilities for coordinating these animations across multiple vehicles simultaneously, ensuring that lighting and motion remain aligned across separate hardware units.
To ensure hardware compatibility and operational safety, the toolkit includes automated validation processes that check sequence files against technical constraints before they are deployed. Performances are executed by loading these validated files and associated audio data from external storage directly onto the vehicle firmware.
