The LinkM, from the Maker Shed, is a USB adapter for BlinkM Smart LEDs that addresses two of the most frequently-requested features: It enables you to program your BlinkM (or MaxM or MiniM) without setting up a separate I/O board, such as an Arduino, and it lets you program or control multiple BlinkMs simultaneously. Plug it in, plug in a BlinkM, fire up the BlinkM Multitrack Sequencer, and start programming! It requires no drivers and works on OSX, Windows, and Linux.
Quick Start requirements:
- No electronics experience!
- No programming experience!
- Computer with USB port
- One or more BlinkMs, BlinkM MinMs, BlinkM MaxMs
- OSX 10.3.9, Windows XP/7, Linux
- Java 1.5 or later
- Mulitrack ThingM Sequencer software

It looks great and solves a need that I have…. I just wish it was less expensive…
