Has anyone here tried making a meteorite pattern on 8cm strips similar to those cheap ones sold on aliexpress? I have a full 300 pixels to play with. I was thinking if i can treat the whole setup as a giant LED matrix i can make the pattern as fixels falling down but idk how to code that. I was wondering if someone has attempted this already.
Search the history. I found an example a few years ago that works well, but my tailoring on the pattern likely made it not useable for you. I made it a C++ class, and modified it to work on parallel strips instead of a single matrix. You can find the code at the link below if you want to try to port it. But like I said, this is based on some work done here not all that long ago. I suspect you can find it if you dig some. It’s in the MeteorShower.cpp and .h file.
Maybe you can modify Jeremy’s Matrix code for your needs.
