It was initially designed to be used in children's cycling games, connecting to microbits via bluetooth, but will work anywhere interactive addressable leds are needed. Alongside a My Bike's got LED board the design includes 3d printed components to transform 50mm tube into a Lightbeam. The repository includes example code for the game described.
