I also have it XY mapped, and this video shows alternating Noise patterns using both methods. The “Polar Patterns” video in the playlist shows some other neat uses of the disk’s concentric ring layout.
Driving it with a Teensy 3.2 by @PaulStoffregen , controlled with an IR remote control, and mounted in a round enclosure.
Jason, I may be building one to replace my 16x16 matrix on the wall. I especially like the clock feature… Which brings me to my question… The housing looks suspiciously like a round office clock. is this the donor source? also as for wiring the leds… just confirming… Disk.h shows the outer ring as the start and then working its way in correct?
Oh and will it run on an arduino or do I need to go with a more stout Teensy?
Spectacular work Sir… always impressive
Yeah, the disc fit nicely in a 10 inch clock, with a little trimming on the clock innards. I haven’t looked at the code in a while, but I think that’s correct. The LEDs physically start in the outer ring, I think. I would definitely recommend an ARM board (Teensy, Photon, ESP8266, etc). I’m not sure most of the patterns would work well on an AVR (most Arduinos).
