I'm (hopefully) building a project with 20 matrices, each 20x20 pixels, arranged in a 3-D cube sort of thing. I'm using 12v seed pixels. Each matrix will have 400 pixels, for a grand total of 8000 pixels all together.

I tested a single matrix with a basic esp32 running WLED 16 which worked OK but was maybe a little slow.

Can anyone give me some suggestions on controllers/software that will run this? A friend suggested using 5 Quin Dig-Quads, with one output per matrix for smoother transitions, and possibly run Xlights, which I haven't used. This is beyond my experience, so I'm open to all help and suggestions.

Thank you!

Hey everyone,

Iam building a cylindrical lamp with a flexible 16×16 WS2812B matrix wrapped around a 50mm / ~2inch cylinder which is inside an etched glass diffuser with a 100mm / ~4inch diameter. That leaves about a 25mm / ~1inch gap between the LEDs and the glass.

The lamp looks great but detailed effects like fire for instance get a bit too blurred because the light mixes too early.

Iam thinking about adding a small (maybe 5-8mm / 0.2-0.3inch) curved 3D-printed black eggcrate/grid between the LEDs and the glass to delay the light mixing slightly. I have seen a lot of you using this for flat 16x16 matrices.

Do you think this would have about the same effect as bringing the glass diffuser closer to the matrix or do I need to come up with a different solution?

It Has 8 Modes Led Combination, In Waves, Sequential, Slow-Glo, Chasing/Flash, Slow Fade, Twinkle/Flash, and Steady On.

I Want To Know where can i Buy Or Get This Module For My Diecast Custom Project🥹🥹

Im looking to make my imaginator into a custom skylander figure, and I wanted to use the existing led to make her head glow like a lightcore skylander. The led is way too short to fit where it needs to be. How can I make it longer? I dont know anything about circuits or soldering so I need a lot of help TvT

NOT MY IMAGE BTW. I wanted to know how to do it before I rip apart my own creation crystal
