While stuffling around looking at stupid videos on YouTube, I stumbled upon an LED Cube and thought it looked awesome! I had to make one! But of course it would have to be improved upon by using RGB LEDs instead ;-)
Quick budget calculation...
- 512 LEDs (~$200)
- Controller (~$35)
- I/O Expansion buffer (~$40)
- Other bits (~$25)
- Time - LOTS!
Having scanned the "Instructable" I figured it was pretty straight forward so I figured I'd work it out as I go along and here is the (almost) finished product!
And here are some of my animations!
All that is left for me now is to put it in a case to make it a bit more presentable and to program effects!
PS: Following posts will form a basic guide with some step by step instructions, images, links & tips!
