i just finished my 8x8 grid of random blinking lights. this is labor intensice, respect brother

@geekdomsgrandma3740 8 лет назад

reading the comments makes me feel really stupid

@cbr7170 8 лет назад

There is a really nice startup that creates these cubes aswell, but theirs can do a lot of really cool stuff, like showing notifications and stuff, add that, would be awesome.

@lightguy250 8 лет назад

If you want to get technical, you could buy a small pixel controller (from a website like Holidaycoro) and use it to control this matrix over DMX. Basically so you can control it in real time and integrate it with other panels.

@MethodicalMaker 8 лет назад

Hey, you should take that up to the next level. a cool electrical project should get a cool outer look as well. saw off anything sticking out, wood filler the holes. sand it nice and smooth then glue down some nice veneer and stain it, or prime and paint it!

@jellysam 8 лет назад

This is something i might try in the future although i have not done any electronics type stuff since i was in high school

@Samtagri 8 лет назад

I would go insane half way through that soldering job. Well done sir.

@leisergeist 8 лет назад

Now make it run pong :D

@sharkyanimations 8 лет назад

Omg.

@Darth6273 8 лет назад

Pong? On a 100 Pixel matrix? Ja... neee... is klar!

I like your led board which you solder in starting of every video

@michaelg.werner4331 8 лет назад

a real PRO instruction video - you should moderate a DIY show on the TV! thx a lot

@nervenjere 8 лет назад

"afterwards i drilled 400 holes" fml, xD thanks for the great work you put in ur videos!

@sacul19700 7 лет назад

nervenjere i work at my led matrix with 1152 holes xD 24x12 led matrix if you want i could make a video

@rizkyp 8 лет назад

Madness is an understatement.

@mic159 7 лет назад

I would suggest using the ws2811 string type LEDs instead, that way you dont have to do so much snipping and soldering! Just drill the 8 or 12mm holes in the backing wood and slot the LEDs through.

@Draalo 8 лет назад

Gut das Du deutsch sprichst, da brauch ich jetzt nicht google translate benutzen :) Wenn Du ein Stück Draht ganz besonders gerade haben möchtest nimm zwei Zangen und ziehe den Draht auseinander. Bei kurzen Drahtstücken kannst Du den auch zwischenzwei Holzstücken hin und her rollen. Nette Idee, werde mir so was auch malbasteln.

@holgermuellerger 8 лет назад

Great stuff, something I wanna try to do. *But a question:* _Why (in some of such Tutorials) none using a _*_white_*_ layer of the "walls"?_ The black (or brown, as in one with a cardboard was shown) swallow a lot of the light ... and "yes sure, the wall must blocking the light to the neighbours" ... but sone white paint or any other way ...?

@ReallyWeirdVideos 8 лет назад

Hey maybe to fix that gap problem without doing too much work, I'd sand down all the edges until smooth then use veneer and cover everything. Maybe add some tung oil to it?

@HossuFlaviu 8 лет назад

since nobody told you yet, cool project !

@greatscottlab 8 лет назад

Thanks

@shamarthgupta7535 8 лет назад

please make good projects like this one i like it very much

@wobblysauce 8 лет назад

Having the final plexi cover just a bit bigger to start would be handy, to remove the slight gaps on the edges.

@rstar0000 8 лет назад

@maurice7017 4 года назад

@gudenau 8 лет назад

I would probably use the two wire version with a 16x16 grid powered by an ARM board of some sort.

@RussBoy360 8 лет назад

I have been making one of these but 16x16 at college. But I have an SD card that can display images that are encoded as text on it.

@nikhildewangan2118 5 лет назад

Fabulously done man

@Danny.Meatball 4 года назад

We should re-attack this with 3d printed parts and maybe alittle smaller squares so you can use strips of the LEDs instead of cutting them individually

@androiduberalles 8 лет назад

Yess, I was going to make one of these this summer. You're the best! Thanks for the vid

@bhaskarchakraborty1063 7 лет назад

thank you scott for your fantastic video.

@jaye1967 5 лет назад

It would be interesting to modify the design to be a "zero bezel" type, that way you could make larger displays by joining multiple units together without seams.

@MDFRESCUER 8 лет назад

Nice project.

@techy4198 8 лет назад

Finally something with FastLED! :D

@FareedClarity 5 лет назад

Wow luar biasa, bagus sekali

@LTLTLTLTLT 7 лет назад

how much leds can you connect on the arduino, I'm planning to do 240 leds. Is that possible?

@greatscottlab 7 лет назад

Yes

@TheKill3rexe 7 лет назад

long story short :D ... After a quick test i can say that the connection of up to 65 LEDs is no big problem. But you have to take care of how bright you want them to be and which color!!

@ThatGuy-nv2wo 7 лет назад

You can do any amount of LEDs(well not really, but a lot) it's the power supply that needs to be beefier the more LEDs you have, not the arduino which is just data.

@mazegamer5698 7 лет назад

LucasMoviesmaker yes

@BrazilianGaucho 7 лет назад

I don't think you can use an Arduino Uno for that many LEDs. You'd have to get a higher Arduino model.

@HexagonicDistortion 8 лет назад

I just ordered the parts... finally time for me to take a plunge into the arduino. I'v been fearing that device for to long >:)

@micavi6070 7 лет назад

hi GreatScot, In Instructables Wasn'from 5 to 8 seconds animations, and they are the best pls make we can download somewhere for free You Are The Best

@robin_fpv 4 года назад

I know the Video is almost 4 years old, but it Looks really cool and I want to make one too. I wanted to ask you If you could give me the Link to the Acryl you used, it would be awesome. I hope you read this. PS.: Really cool projekt.

@tommyamida5951 8 лет назад

Cool project, but how long did it take to build that from the ground up? I think it would be nice to just include that on the endcard maybe

@greatscottlab 8 лет назад

Took me around 30-40 hours. Not sure though.

@locha9827 8 лет назад

This is such Epic.

@irlrp 8 лет назад

Nice project man, keep it up

@3dvisiongamer213 6 лет назад

Great Scott!! That was awesome!

@HajdamowiczKonrad 8 лет назад

Wouldn't it be better to make bigger semitransparent cover, just to make it overlapping on the wooden edges on front? It should give you better look and there would be no gaps between the panel and wooden edges. Great project anyway!

@htfkid2000 8 лет назад

Hm, I would like to mention: I feel that white foam board would have worked better for this project, so that way more light gets internally reflected instead of absorbed by the black.

@megacrab 8 лет назад

This is fucking great! Well done! I'm always inspired by your videos!

@harveyperch 8 лет назад

kool project has given me somecool idears

@hasankawaaipikachu8775 8 лет назад

Just came up with an Idea: Can you interactive the matrix somehow? Then you should be able to make a small tetris game and play it right?

@aymanfaroukhamed999 5 лет назад

you are Great Really You are Amazing Man

@tuulari 8 лет назад

It looks amazing! But does it only do random patterns or is there a way to control it? Something like a bluetooth connection would be epic.

@holetoanotheruniverse4690 8 лет назад

real led monitor!

@Schorsch9191 6 лет назад

Nice one! What is the minimum voltage to run the matrix? Or, what is the maximum resistance on the 5V Line, when all LEDs light up white as bright as possible?

@Remy561 8 лет назад

You always have awesome little projects :) Keep it up! :D

@thespiriteddrifter 6 лет назад

My group is working on this as a project right now and great Scott you go fast! Can you slow it down in the future, please? Other than that thanks for sharing!

@Vansinn 8 лет назад

Your videos are such an inspiration! Im going to try to mix this LED matrix with a vu meter it would look awesome. I will keep you up to date on twitter :)

@greatscottlab 8 лет назад

Great ;-)

@BoomBrush 8 лет назад

That turned out better than I thought it would. However If I tried to made it, it would look like a mashed potato set on fire. Is there a particular reason you use such low gauge wire to carry small amounts of current when only a few amps are going through, or is that just what you had lying around?

@naiyori5218 8 лет назад

hmmm. greatjob, greatscott!! :) a diy rgb led display/monitor, that's the first thing came in my mind after watching this. ^_^

@topgundk 8 лет назад

"and just like that"..... i can solder, but are no Jedi master in doing so. That "just like that" would take me .... a while ... to do :) But very very cool project...

@1337sh337 5 лет назад

I am trying to find out what i would look like without the boxgrid. how wil the LED diffuse then? Would'nt it look a loot smother? Thats what I'm thinking of, but maybe not what you were aiming for in this video :)

@r.a.tvideos5476 6 лет назад

@Mattx38 5 лет назад

Hello. What a great project. I began it. At 4:33 what type of wire are you using to make bridges ?

@markhensens5989 7 лет назад

I've orderd a Raspberry Pi Zero and this particulair led strip. I'm stil waiting for it to arrieve, and I can't wait to get my hands on those items! But... Uncle Google can't tell me how I'm supposed to wire this up. Could you please make a video that shows how to wire the leds up to the Raspberry Pi? Greetings Mark, a teenager from the Netherlands!

@Sebby6656 7 лет назад

Mark Hensens Just out of curiosity, how come you bought a raspberry pi zero over an arduino?

@markhensens5989 7 лет назад

Because a Raspberry Pi has a hdmi port, and it can run Linux. I'm also planning to do some experimenting with Kodi. (aka xbmc)

@Sebby6656 7 лет назад

Ah okay, so it was more of a purchase for future projects than this one specifically? You could also get a arduino clone relatively cheaply if you couldnt find another way

@markhensens5989 7 лет назад

Wauw, I've just orderd an Arduino Nano clone for €3. Xd I hope it's any good, thanks for the tip.

@Sebby6656 7 лет назад

I've never had a problem with them and if it doesn't work first time then you can get a download for the firmware for the specific chip your arduino has, np

@AnuAnu-eh2bq 7 лет назад

why didn't you consider having 10 strips with 10 leds each, this could save you some work and time and also seems like a reasonable solution. for me it would be too much hustle to treat each led individually, driilling, smoldering 600 holes, connections, seems insane.

@SlashZooka 8 лет назад

@Sascha-fh2cl 8 лет назад

are there some problems when you create/build this things or work it with out of problems/ have you some problems?

@DJQJ1 8 лет назад

hey scot , nice build but can you make a video of programing your matrix ?

@iiimtw111 8 лет назад

you can paint the frame with white color or black color or any color great idea?

@_OldGuard_ 8 лет назад

very nice

@KonradZielinski 5 лет назад

I'm thinking make a 10x20 matrix and use it to play Tetris.

@Tomyb15 8 лет назад

Why did you need to use a raspberry pi on your previous led matrix? Or why did you not use it here? Though it seemed to work really well with just the arduino.

@niklaswolk1763 8 лет назад

From where do you got your foam board? Is it possible to use an other material instead of the foam board? Because it es not very cheap...

@meinhardkissich9955 8 лет назад

Great Video! I'd like to build such an LED matrix with 17 x 17 LED's. Are the WS2812b fast enough to get a nice and smooth output when controlling 289 of them in series?
