Ambilight ESP32-S3
A camera-based bias light that watches the screen and drives the LEDs behind the TV in real time.
Purpose
Get proper bias lighting that works with any source — TV, console, projector — without a capture card or a PC in the loop. The whole thing should hide behind the screen on a single cable.
This started as a way to avoid both of the usual ambilight approaches. The longer story — sensor quirks, the decode pipeline, the boot-flash fix — lives in the posts below, which I’ll keep adding to as the build evolves.
