The author creates a youtube video 10 years old Arduino Project. The hardware is an Arduino Ethernet, Adafruit NeoPixel Shield, and an Alibaba Nokia 5110-style LCD.

Adafruit NeoPixels are a type of individually addressable RGB LED lights that are manufactured by Adafruit Industries. These LEDs are controlled using a single wire protocol that allows them to be connected in series and controlled by a microcontroller, such as an Arduino or Raspberry Pi.

The NeoPixels are known for their bright and vibrant colors, and can be programmed to display a wide range of patterns and animations. They are commonly used in DIY electronics projects, including wearables, art installations, and home automation systems.

The NeoPixel line includes a variety of different form factors, including strips, rings, and matrices, which make them suitable for a wide range of applications. They are also available in different sizes and densities, with the number of LEDs per meter ranging from 30 to 144.

Adafruit provides extensive documentation and support for NeoPixels, including libraries and example code for popular microcontroller platforms.

The Arduino Ethernet Shield is an expansion board that allows an Arduino board to connect to an Ethernet network. It was first released in 2010 and has since undergone several revisions and updates.

The original Ethernet Shield was based on the Wiznet W5100 Ethernet controller chip, which supports up to four simultaneous socket connections. This allowed the Arduino to act as a web client, web server, or to communicate with other devices on the network using protocols such as TCP or UDP.

Later revisions of the Ethernet Shield added additional features, such as an SD card slot for storing data or serving web content, and support for Power over Ethernet (PoE) using an optional PoE module.

In addition to the official Arduino Ethernet Shield, there are also many third-party Ethernet Shields available, based on a variety of Ethernet controller chips, such as the W5500, W5100S, or the W6300. These shields offer different features and capabilities, and may be more suitable for certain projects depending on their requirements.

Since the release of the Ethernet Shield, the Arduino platform has also introduced other boards with built-in Ethernet connectivity, such as the Arduino Ethernet and the Arduino MKR ETH. These boards offer a more compact and integrated solution for Ethernet projects.
