Bluetooth Speaker with Light Effects

What is the tutorial about?

In this tutorial you learn how to build a verry loud 100W bluetooth speaker with light effects and an FPGA controller. So you can just expand the project and add your own features with the FPGA.

When you buy a normal commercial bluetooth speaker, they are not loud enough for outdoors. So we just made the box bigger to use the potential of the speakers and add an LED strip, so it even looks cool in the dark.

What you need

1x Core MAX10 1x Shield MAX10 1x Audio Extension 1x Bluetooth Module (CSRA64215) 1x Amplifier 2x Speaker 1x 24V Power Supply 2x 12V Battery 1x 24V 0.5A Battery Charger 1x Battery Protection Breadboard, Buttons, Potentiometer, Wood...
