While the 3D prototype was being built and we were waiting for our order to be delivered, we created a simulation for the lighting. We wanted to think about the possible patterns in advance to make it easier to adapt them to the Arduino later. We took a look at 10 white and 10 red LEDs we found and ordered on the list. Unfortunately the try with PythonQt and kivy took a lot of time and was aborted to create the simulation with Godot, an open source game engine.

In the following 8 different modes are shown.
