Step 0: Setup Hardware
Securely attach an LED strip, Raspberry Pi, and Battery bank to a ceiling fan. Remember that uniform circular motion exists and that flying objects hurt if they hit you.
Adafruit NEO Compatible LED strips were used in development.
Step 1: Parse image
Before an image can be displayed, it needs to be converted to a format that can be interpreted. Run `python3 convert.py` and follow the on screen instructions.
Tip: `Num Pixels` refers to the number of LEDs on the rotating arm.
Step 3: Deployment
Move `main.py` and `pattern.pkl` to the Raspberry Pi.
Run `sudo python3 main.py`
`main.py` MUST be run under root!
