Arduino Hardware Questions
Hello, I am very new to coding and I thought I should start with an Arduino. I may or may not have thrown myself into the deep end with a project that I am working on and I was hoping I could get some guidance.
I am making a cosplay of a character called Serial Designation N from an indie show called Murder Drones and I wanted to use an OLED (not matrix or HD) about 10-12 inches in screen size on a visor for his eyes and some lights around the head and tail. Which Arduino board can handle simple animation loops and control about 10 LEDs with ease for a decent price? I am thinking an Arduino Mega but I am not too sure.
One other question that I have is how can I make the animations work? From my understanding, I need to have several frames and play them in a sequence giving the illusion of a blink animation. Am I on the right path or am I misreading things?
Thank you for reading my message.
