The Smart LED WS2812B Ring12 features 12 RGB LEDs capable of displaying 16 million colors, easily controlled via Arduino.

WS2812B is an extremely interesting LED that can emit light in red, green or blue - or any combination of these three colors, able to show a total of approximately 16 million different colors. On this board diodes are arranged in a circle. They are controlled by a single pin with only few lines of code from Arduino IDE. That's possible thanks to the integrated controller inside the LED itself!
