Hey @PeterD, you never cease to surprise us! Another two days and a rough finished proof of concept done towards your project goal.
Curious, did you retain a continuous strip of the WS2811 or are they individual bulbs? Wondered if you are using small 8 element arrays for the individual seqments, and just chaining them together in memory to form the digit? Would you mind sharing some code tid-bits?
Any chance for an image of the back side to show Neopixels and board interface wiring?
The video demos your ideas. It will be cool to see in use!! Your fans will luv ya!
Robin
For the big board, I'll use the WS2811 leds (Neopixel)
I've made holes is a carton box and put the leds in there. :)
This was more easy to develop the code. I'll test the brightness soon.
The board must be visible during summer days as well ;)
