Hello there,

While I am not at all new to LEDs and quite versed in them I am very new to any sort of programming or arduino/esp32 integration. I have this project that I have been working on for years (though its been at a standstill for a while because of well.........life. But I would like to finish it so I can finally hang it etc. Please Help.

I have a quick question. I am trying to make a clock out of an old air hockey playfield. (ill add pictures so it will make more sense) . But simply put I have a 12v WS2811 strip that I have partially modified (disk was too big so turned the 12/0 oclock, 3,6, and 9 o clock positions from 3 pixels to 6) I have an arduino uno board and a RTC board that I was planning to use. The LED strip will go around the outside of the disk to serve as the second hand. There are 60 segments of LEDs 56 that are 3 LEDs and 4 that are 6. At the least I would like it to just tick around the circle alternating between a minute of ticking of Blue and then a minute of orange. If I am allowed to be fancy I would love to have different types of second ticks that might tick like a progress bar so instead of only each second lighting up it would just progress around until the whole ring is lit up and then erase one second at a time the next time around.

Is this easy to do with the boards I have or would it be easier to do with an esp32 board and wled?

Please help

Pictures of the project so far are HERE
