Light up your new year parties and impress all your friends with these amazing music reactive multicolor LED lights that response and change their colors on every loud beat. These lights are nothing but simple RGB LED strips connected to arduino - the brain of this project. LED strips mean that you can mount them anywhere in your home and even outdoors. The main purpose of this project was to use it in parties but you can also use it for daily purpose for making your music more interesting! Whether you mount in on your entrance door, around your sofa, your LED TV, on your computer desk or walls, that's up to you. The uses of this thing are endless! The only condition is that you have to have an audio output device near your lights to feed them with audio signals which can be processed and reacted upon.

As told above, this project uses an arduino for taking the audio input, processing it and then giving an output through it's digital pins to the LED strip controller circuit which then drives the strips. It uses a 12v power supply to power both the strip and arduino. An advantage of this project is that it doesn't 'waste' any audio jacks. It has an input jack which sends the input signal to arduino and an output jack to send the same signal to your speakers or earphones. The entire project can be completed within 2 hours (or 3 hours maximum) and requires just one of the basic parts that can be found easily. I assure that you will be really surprised on watching the final result of the project (it looks much better in real than in the images).
Here is a short video of the project in action:
