Very cool! Have definitely thought about this for mine, have never actually gotten past looking around and seeing nobody makes them yet. It'd be amazing to throw some bluetooth on there and be able to flash different patterns, or to throw a fullblown mini screen on it...
I wonder how hard it would be to make a set of large-gauge lobe jewelry with a screen in it. Perhaps 1/2" or 3/4" would be doable?
A thought re sales and sizing, though: industrials are usually sold in quarter-inch increments and most people buy 1-2.5" from what I understand, so it should be doable to make them to sell.
A screen requires a loooot more grunt than this microprocessor, not to mention a lot more battery power and supporting components.
At best you could probably do a small low-res (8x8?) LED matrix with some programmed patterns but even that would require more batteries etc than this and get exponentially heavier.
