Individually Addressable Dream full color Programmable WS2812 WS2812B Great LED Strip,Black PCB ,silicone sleeve,came with convenient couple of extra JST-SM 3pin connectors. Works great w/ Arduino and is easy to program, as the addressable WS2811 IC is built- in the 5050SMD and it makes this led strip to light up each individual 5050SMD at your wish. Can be cut each 5050SMD individually, and will works great without damage ,Need only 5v, can work on USB power.Fully IP68 waterproof silicone sleeve with JST- SM connectors on both ends for easy installation,Each pixel is on a separate PCB, which allows you to cut up the strips into smaller segments if required for your installation.Addressable LEDs allow each individual LED to have a distinct color & brightness to every other LED. It allows you to display most anything on an LED strip that can be displayed on this screen! Full color video, signs, complex chase patterns, persistence of vision projects--really, the sky is the limit.This 5050 Dream Color is a good choice for LED hobbyists：You can expect some cool chases, interesting rainbow patterns, and varying speed fades and patterns,Making led screen, led wall, advertising board, apply to hotel, KTV, bars, Outdoor advertising signs, Christmas or wedding party decorationUltra-bright but running at low temperature
Neopixels are a quality brand name, they might be expensive. Try Amazon searching "addressable LED"

Sure!!
ws2812 on amazon
You can get them on AliExpress, but I've never ordered there before. Planning for next time though.
I've just bought random ones off amazon and haven't had issues.
example; (i didn't buy these, just examples)
https://www.amazon.com/Adafruit-NeoPixel-Digital-Weatherproof-ADA1461/dp/B00SLYAHSW
$25 per 1m
https://www.amazon.com/240pixels-programmable-Individually-addressable-Waterproof/dp/B00K7UHPEC/
$32 per 4m (or $8 per 1m)
for power supplies i've picked up a few 12v ones from ebay, you should be able to find some 5v 80w (what that 4m strip would need) for ~$25.
Most of what i've bought are solid color 12v rgb strips (non-addressable). The 12v power supplies are a little bit cheaper.
You would need an individually addressable strip like this one
Great! So I will go with those or equivalent, I can handle power and wiring etc. on my own. Now, let's talk microcontrolers if I wanted them to be able to be switched on and off, and between modes, from a LAN/Internet device and/or direct connection (pref USB), what is my best bet? An Arduino+WiFi shield, Pi w/ USB wifi adapter I already have, or a trinket/feather/(insert microcontroller here)?
Edit: Heres another strand, since I want 30/meter instead of 60.
