Hey everyone! For the last year I've been working on a piece of software

Hey everyone! For the last year I’ve been working on a piece of software named GeoPix, designed to make pixel mapping and real-time led art a LOT easier. Most of my inspiration and drive has come from the hacking / making communities such as this one!

Here’s a large scale demo of GeoPix in use:

Here’s an example of a simple pixel map process:

I wanted to share it’s release here with you all because I specifically added support for the teensy 3.1 as a pixel controller preset in the software. I did this because the teensy 3.1, fastLED3.1, and the OctoWS2811 combination has provided at least to my knowledge the cheapest and fastest solution to drive the most pixels (up to 460 pixels x 8 strips @ 60 fps)

GeoPix of course removes almost all of of the processing requirements from the Teensy and uses it as a blind pixel controller with all animation and mapping happening pc side.

So for that reason I hope that it is ok that I post this here since I know this community is about pixel/microcontroller art :slight_smile:

Let me know if you have any questions or comments, or would like to beta test!

Looks interesting. Couldnt find a download link though. Did I miss it?

There’s a lot on the website! Here’s the download links and a getting started guide:

Yes!! Awesomw

Wow, totally impressed man. Congrats Lucas!

Thank you Marc and Leon!

Wow, Thank you
It’s very impressive !!!

Congrats Lucas - what a master piece of software + hardware. Really love the idea of layout the panels in the good WYSIWYG way :wink:

@Lucas_Morgan is there any chance that you release your software also for Mac OSX and Linux?
Or will it stay on Windows only?

@Jurgen_Skrotzky Thank you for the comments!

Sorry no it’s built in a platform called Touch Designer which is windows only. No immediate plans to redesign with a more portable code base but maybe if things take off :slight_smile:

Thanks for the reply. I also planed to create a software like this many years ago - but did not have the time - so I hoped that the software you did (which is really awesome) working also with mac or linux.

I decided many years ago to use Qt (C++) to program the software (because of Cross-Platform support)

If you are planing to do a port for multi platform - let me know, I can help you then.

@Jurgen_Skrotzky That’s really awesome - thanks for the support I will if things keep picking up momentum !
