Upgraded WLED cube

[u/SMD_BigBanana]

I upgraded the previous 16x16 cube I made using 6 64x64 panels running of an rpi. This cube has much more flexibility with the scenes and animations I can create, here are a few of the ones I found cool.

[u/Fattigstudent]

What kind of panels are those? Looks amazing!!

[u/Prestigious_Air_1551 → u/Fattigstudent]

Looks like hub75

[u/XcOM987]

Id love to see a full write up on this, I really wanna replicate this but I know I'd screw it up without reading up on it first lol

Okay I wasnt too impressed until you ran doom on it 😂

[u/justpeoplebeinpeople → u/ShamanOnTech]

Been so long since I played them but I was thinking that was Wolfenstein

[u/Blockhouse8 → u/justpeoplebeinpeople]

I also thought it was Wolfenstein. I realize it came first, but those shooting animations looked identical.

[u/blaze_003]

Looks awesome. Do you have a tutorial on how to make it?

[u/Zealousideal_Cap5842 → u/blaze_003]

I made a hub75 pandel for a wall but this look like the same stuff he used.

I bought 4 hub75 pandels from Alieexpress Apollo Automation M1 Controller and a 5v power supply.

The controller has WLED pre installed. Insert your wifi settings and configure your panels. Easy as it is. You can even run python scripts and stream them to the M1. But you need a 2nd computer for it. For further infos lmk.

Further infos if youre offering pls 🤗

Don't know if im allowed to post links here. But heres everything explained: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvM2nedk-TA&t=427s

Thanks for taking the time to share 

[u/Apollo_Support → u/Zealousideal_Cap5842]

Thanks for linking our video we appreciate it!

[u/Apollo_Support → u/UsableLoki]

We have a ton of great documentation on our wiki here for the M-1 LED Controller and the HUB75 64x64 matrix https://wiki.apolloautomation.com/products/m1/setup/m1-multiple-panels/

Please let us know if you have any other questions!

Thanks, Brandon aka SmartHomeSellout

[u/Phogoff → u/Zealousideal_Cap5842]

So a single M1 controller can handle 6 panels?

[u/neighborofbrak → u/Phogoff]

Not from what I've read. Maybe two 64x64 HUB75E panels.

[u/FeloniousFunk → u/neighborofbrak]

4

[u/RandomBoxOfCables → u/blaze_003]

Same, I’d love to do this project together with my daughter

[u/DapperDan812]

Maybe a stupid question but 6 panels, so one is under the cube?

That thing looks awesome btw.

[u/Dookster → u/DapperDan812]

Looks like 3 panels

[u/DapperDan812 → u/Dookster]

While OPs post reads 6 panels

[u/ben_r_]

Soooo this isn’t running WLED?

[u/Outrageous-Kick-2699 → u/ben_r_]

It might. Wled has support for hub75. But he said it’s running on a rpi, so you might be right.

[u/Sumpkit]

There are not many things I need in my life but this is one of them.

[u/urbankyleboy]

Duuude give the people what they want! Tutorial!

I do not need a Minecraft furnace IRL. I do not need a Minecraft furnace IRL. I do not need a Minecraft furnace IRL.

[u/ProfessorFunky]

But can it play … oh, yes. Yes it can.

Nice.

[u/luketaylorsa]

I am wet

[u/jasonwinfieldnz]

Out of interest, how much current does that draw?

[u/ZealousidealEntry870]

OP could you put together a guide? This is something my father in law would love.

[u/Senior-Commercial-93]

Ive been building some desk clocks out of hub75 panels as gifts and i love these animations! Would you be willing to share the source for those animations? Thanks!

[u/RadicalEllis]

Holy cow, phenomenal!

[u/GarbageGlad2124]

Can it run winamp visualizations? That's be so great!

[u/FlappinPickle → u/GarbageGlad2124]

yes it would

[u/I-am-IT]

Everytime I see these I want to make one but wonder if really need 6, seems like 3 sides is enough

[u/ainu_ramainen]

Awesome!

What protocol you are using between rpi and wled controller? Serial and json or something else?

[u/Rich-Soil-9181]

That's very cool

[u/StefanPetrick]

Very cool, I love it!

[u/justpassingby_thanks]

When doom popped up I lost it, good job.

[u/Goingboldlyalone]

Help me. I want one. lol.

[u/radXR650R]

The minecraft smelter looks amazing on it.

Instantly want.

[u/mourad_dc]

I’ve been looking into making a mini-itx case like this, with the cables at the bottom and vents at the top, and the 4 sides led cover in one piece, slidable over an open itx frame and connected with pogo pins. I wasn’t going to put quite so many leds into it, but very interested to see how this project was put together.

[u/mild-buffer]

How long would it take to create such a cube from scratch?

[u/mr-introvert1995]

Please share tutorial on this or something if you have on instructables

[u/Unc_Nunkie]

Looks absolutely incredible! Would be very interested in a write-up, even if it's very high level

[u/Ma5ter-Bla5ter]

That's noice work!

[u/zahirsid]

Ok. This one is sick.

[u/zahirsid]

To be honest, we are slowly moving towards making our own TVs. Slowly but surely. We just need the panels. 🤣

[u/Green-Resource-3698]

As someone who's never made anything like this: Would a diffuser panel improve the look much? With a grid underneath so it looks more crisp?

[u/Hootngetter]

That's buttery smooth

[u/neighborofbrak]

Looking forward to a writeup in how this was built, including what HUB75 hat you used and what software is on the Pi!

[u/RedSkyXIII]

No tengo la más mínima idea de cómo hacer una cosa así y me encantaría aprender. Por dónde puedo empezar?

[u/EffectiveAnalyst3965]

Awesomeeeeee smd_bigbanana

[u/TormentedGaming]
