Implemented and visually tested the Thermaltake 36-LED aurora animation.

Summary:

  • Added the main Thermaltake 36-LED aurora animation module.
  • Added a non-writing preview script.
  • Added a short controlled RGB-writing test script.
  • Added a Thermaltake LED mapping helper script.
  • The script validates the static OpenRGB device mapping before writing colors.
  • The test targets only the validated thermaltake_aurora_fans logical zone.
  • The reserved reserved_argb_6_led_zone is not touched.
  • Confirmed the real physical layout:
    • bottom outer ring: LEDs 0-8
    • bottom inner ring: LEDs 9-17
    • upper outer ring: LEDs 18-26
    • upper inner ring: LEDs 27-35
  • Final animation uses sparse aurora sparkles with dim/mid/bright fade steps.
  • Added one longer inter-fan swoop from the bottom fan into the upper fan.
  • Added a final short bottom-fan swoop before returning to calm dark blue.
  • Visual test confirmed the result gives the intended organic northern-light effect.

Result:

  • Issue #5 is complete.
