[Noisebridge-discuss] 3D RGB LED matrix

[TeeTrizZz]

By the way: I just ordered 100 RGB LEDs for $17 on eBay. They are shipped from Hong Kong which means it’ll take about four weeks, but I have plenty of time. You won’t find such an offer anywhere else.

I’m going to build my spinning ring with them. So I need to find out how to control them, too.

Subject: [Noisebridge-discuss] 3D RGB LED matrix

I recently came into possession of a Hi-Tec Art cube (www.hi-tecart.com/products/cube-1/cube#1). I found it a little boring that it could only run through a per-arranged pattern, and I was hoping to remove it's LEDs and create a programmable 3D RGB LED matrix. The main issue I am facing is finding a way to drive the matrix, and I was wondering if anybody knew of any relatively easy and inexpensive ways of doing so? I have a fair amount of electronics experience, and I am definitely interested in learning more. I also have a fair amount of coding experience for actually writing the program to drive the LEDs. So, any bright ideas noisebridge?
