For PICA TOWER, PIC16F1827 of Microchip Technology Inc. is adopted. You can make a program for this microcomputer and make your original illumination pattern. (*1)

The PCB with LEDs can be removed from the base, and can be attached to Arduino Uno of the microcomputer board so that you can make your original illumination pattern with Arduino.(*2)

*1 To make a program for the microcomputer, you need MPLAB X, XC8 complier, and PICkit3 of Microchip Technology Inc.
*2 To make a program with Arduino, you need such programming environment as Arduino UNO, Arduino IDE, etc.

This product was developed and merchandized from the collaboration of EK JAPAN and Fukuoka Technical Highschool.
