Electronics Kit Full-Color Panel

ProtoFrenz 3.0 is a pre-programmed ESP32-based LED face controller built specifically for protogens, fursuits, helmets, and wearable builds. Plug in your display, connect a power bank, and your face is already talking along with you — voice-reactive mouth, animated gradients, full expression library, ready to go.

No coding. No Arduino IDE. No setup headaches. No soldering. Just power on and suit up.

What It Does

• Voice-reactive mouth animation — opens and closes in real time as you speak
• Animated RGB gradients — 7 pride flag presets (Rainbow, Pan, Trans, Lesbian, NB, Ace, Bi) plus fully custom color stops
• 134-preset face library — 52+ eye shapes, 33+ mouths, 24+ noses, all designed for protogen builds. Or draw your own custom face pixel-by-pixel directly in the WebUI.
• 4 independent expressions (Idle, Surprised, Angry, Dead) — each with its own face, gradient, color, and behavior. One tap on the boop sensor to cycle. Auto-reverts to Idle after configurable timeout.
• Dance Mode — audio-reactive face with VU meter, beat flash, and gradient overdrive
• Music Mode — full spectrum analyzer in 4 styles: Bars, Mirror, Waterfall, Pulse (or Auto-cycle)
• Glitch Mode — 8-second digital chaos sequence that looks like your suit just crashed and rebooted
• WiFi WebUI — configure everything from your phone, no app needed. Per-expression face editing with pixel-level bitmap drawing, full gradient editor, button and touch sensor remapping, brightness, mic sensitivity, live diagnostics, factory reset. No account, no cloud.
• Onboard NeoPixel indicator — changes color based on your current expression or mode, so you always know your current attitude at a glance without checking a phone or app

What's Included

• ProtoFrenz 3.0 controller PCB
• Quick reference card
• Wiring kit — 6ft push button, display connectors, boop sensor, Noctua fan connector
• 2× 192×96mm full-color (Full-Color Panel) LED display panels (multi-color)

Technical Specs

• Display support: Full-Color Panel P3 RGB panels (64×32 per panel, 2 chained)
• Input: Capacitive touch sensor + external button connector
• Microphone: Built-in analog mic for voice-reactive animation and spectrum analysis
• Power: 5V USB-C (2A minimum for LED Matrix, 3–4A recommended for Full-Color Panel)
