I found this wild pairs of heart-shaped heels and augmented them with custom, programmable infinity mirrors. I used a laser cutter to precisely cut mirrored acrylic to size, to fit in the heart shapes on each shoe. In between a layer of one-way and standard mirrored acrylic, are 5 mm NeoPixel LED strips, each controlled by a Qduino Mini microcontroller and programmed with Arduino, utilizing Adafruit’s NeoPixel library.
The black wedges use six custom modules that are installed into the heart cutouts. The Qduino and battery are hidden in the ankle strap.
The white wedges have one large infinity mirror installed in the heart shape, and the Qduino and battery embedded in the space cut out of the platform near the toe.
