  "description": "Soldering a Neopixel LED strip to an ESP32 or Arduino to make it glow can be a fun start for building LED projects. But how do you actually make an LED project that looks and feels like a professional product?\r\n\r\n\r\n**Join this talk and learn:**\r\n\r\n- how to easily plan and design a product, with its unique case design, PCBs with all the components you need and which fit perfectly into the case\r\n- how to design LED projects to be not just repairable, but also easy to modify and extend - or in other words: maker friendly\r\n- how to have fun exploring and combining all the various PCB types, components, and materials for making LED projects\r\n- how all of this is a lot easier than you expect\r\n\r\n\r\n**About the speaker:**\r\n\r\nMarco (nickname \"glowingkitty\") is creating open-source LED lamps and development kits, to get more people excited about creating their own LED projects and getting interested in industrial design and electronics.",
