RGB 32x32 Matrix Art

Post by Licketysplit »

Hi I'm a better artist than programmer. I have a 32x32 adafruit rgb panel connected to a Raspberry Pi 3 running raspbian stretch lite and Adafruit RGB hat. It's hooked up and I can run the sample code.

That being said, my goal here is to be able to program each rgb in the matrix with a custom html coded color to display pixel light pictures I create.

Is the web app the best way to do this? I went through the tutorial and, I cant get that to work but I haven't tried that hard.

Once I get a custom image to display on the matrix I would like to go further and create animations.

I've seen some people on youtube doing similar things with C++, arrays and an arduino. If there is a simple python program for setting the lights one by one that would be cool.

Any ideas would be super appreciated, I never thought I would be obsessed with RGB lighting but I'm VERY excited about the possibilities of this for my art making practice.

THANK YOU!!!!
