Pulsing Lights on the Metroboard Electric Skateboard Simulate an Animal Breathing

I started experimenting with pulsing the lights on the Metroboard, instead of flashing them, since especially with the high power lights the strobe light effect can be a bit disturbing while riding. My goal was to anthropomorphise the electric skateboard by creating the effect that it's "breathing" like an animal. We may vary the rate that it pulses (i.e., breathes), depending on how fast you are going. What do you think?
