Programmable LED fan

The fan came with a small CD-ROM for a Windows software to program the LEDs.

However, I quickly found a project on GitHub to do the same on Linux and MacOS:

The examples work great. You can upload multiple 144x11px images which are shown in sequence, and you can add a (simple) predefined animation to it.

One thing I noticed: You cannot address all of the available circular space. See this example file:

This leads to the result from the thumbnail:

As you can see, a small portion remains black.

To generate the table flipper I have used this command:

magick convert -size 144x11 -background black -gravity center +antialias -font "Source-Han-Sans-CN-Bold" -pointsize 9 -fill red label:"(ノ ゜Д゜)ノ ︵ ┻━┻" PNG24:image.png
