Feature Request WS2812B

Open dallen98 opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

Could this run on Rpi with ws2812b, the reason I ask is that my ambition is to make a matrix 20 feet long by 10 feet high using WS28XX it would be 360 pixels Wide by 180 pixels high NB i would be using the 16mm pitch strips, or said another way thats 60 leds per meter. Thanks Dave

my apologies for missing this, my notifications were not set right.

  1. you can run this on an ESP32 Pro with PSRAM, and FastLED using my Neomatrix lib for arduino
  2. you can find an rPi library that lets you run that many pixels (is there one? or you have an add on board) and then write your own version of https://github.com/marcmerlin/FastLED_RPIRGBPanel_GFX/tree/88b01a5c1fe8632bb27957ad5f2fcba3d8ede90b

Did you check out how much money 64K pixels will cost you? 256 pixels is about $25, so sounds like you'd have to pay $6000+ for the pixels?

but to answer your question, no I'm not going to add this because I could run it directly on ESP32
