Programmable Scrolling LED Badge

LED badgeIf you’ve got something to say and you really want to say it in bright red lights scrolling across a three-inch device pinned to your shirt, have I got the product for you. This Programmable Scrolling LED Badge comes with a USB infrared transmitter cable and software to allow you to load up to eight different messages onto the badge, which will scroll them smoothly across its 12-by-40 display, tell the whole world your name, website address, or your theories about UFOs and alien abduction.

The software is designed for Windows, but I imagine any enterprising hacker could whip up a solution for Linux or Mac without too much trouble. The little device is a tad on the pricey side at $39, but well worth it for the oodles of adoring fans who will ooh and aah while staring at the blinky lights on your shirt.
