Musical Birthday Box VIDEO 1 w/2 x Arduino Nano, 6 x SN74HC595, 2 x Universal Prototype Board, Passive Buzzer & 48 LEDs

The video tutorial showcases a musical birthday box project initiated by form three students at Lompoc Secondary School. The box, powered via USB, uses a universal PCB with 48 LEDs, shift registers, and a buzzer. A photoresistor detects light to control the music and lights. Two Arduino Nano boards manage the lights and music, sharing the same photoresistor. The tutorial includes troubleshooting tips and invites viewers to request the Arduino code.
