 have us100 test script to print distance and verify it works. IT DOES!!

+=======
+fancy LEDs
+--short pin is ground, long needs power and resistor
+
+will test distance sensor sensing distance>turning on LED
+----see distanceTest.py
+
+!!need to clearly define operating distance!!
+
+6/25/23
+decided to test code for PDM mic and is31fl3741 LED board, separately
+will most likely have to run circuitpython for this feature, currently 
+testing on KB2040 (got 1 free in order) hoping to reduce total number of
+wires
+can animate LEDs
+using Adafruit guides, set up/tested mic and got values (but no sound.file).
+also, have set up NFS mount to allow for easier backup/access to backuped file
+
+6/27/23
+got the LED matrix animation working, using a project pack from Adafruit.
+brougth to work, along with breadboarded us100 and LEDs. Individuals really 
+liked. Did enjoy toggling matrix on/off, and playing with distance sensor
+to light up LEDs. Put toggle switch on clock line of PDM mic, allowing 
+on/off toggle
+
+8/5/23
+fully built 5v led strip controller (animated LED strip, us-100, arcade 
+button), coded so that light is off unless close enough to activate, or 
+button pressed. Did build n00ds web, using randomint for time on/off on 
+strands. got 12v tower light running, burned pico out with 12v short into 
+it from light/hair bridging pins. NEED TO USE KAPTON TAPE!!!!! 
+may throw 2 pico's in, 1 to replace the one i killed, 1 to make another 
+12v controller. 
+
+sound board was replaced, is working at this time. Can control via GPIO 
+by pulling pins low. no need to add mcu to control this device, but if 
+tying lines, need common ground. then just set that pin as output, pull
+high/low as needed, control via button press/trigger event
