Thinking of a led cube with PB… My questions maybe will sounds funny but im new to this. My projects till now is an infinity mirror led clock and a simple led strip with stand projecting patterns on the wall. So about led cube. A kit of those they sell like auracube etc can work with PB? Or a simple custom pcb needed to connect the leds rgb or single color and how to connect. Zigzag or straight across and how can i edit patterns or make new to have effects for a cube… for example rain effect pattern. ofc i have notice a topic here with title teleport led . A software for viewing patterns via PB to pc screen. There i saw volumetric previews on sphere. cylinder or cube… so i quess can be done?
No, PB wont work with those led cube kits.
I’d suggest starting smaller with PB first, anyway.
Do a simple matrix, or even a disc, before you add the 3rd dimension.
There are cube kits like that that use WS2812 type LEDs that would work.
I love cubes here are 2 that are easy to make with Pixelblaze:
- Walled cube using 8x8 panels. 3D printed corner clips hold the panels together. 8x8 WS2812 LED Cube
- Volumetric cube using LED pixel string. Many variations of this are possible. Pixelblaze Volumetric Cube
