Default Another LED matrix display:-)

Here's a little project I've been working on.

Cast your 'eye' over the the web page below

Cute.
With all those LEDs blinking so quickly I didn't get a chance to count them. Hundreds?
I have seen similar projects made for cars and made very cheaply in China.
Usually their LEDs burn out within a couple of days.

I counted 47. Looks cool like a big eye. Hope you used the Inchworm to program it

In two ways and equal magnitude, you are living the dream and possess natural creativity. LED display artwork just like this was the main reason I began using microcontrollers a long long time ago. Its like a time machine snap shot of my past. Sadly now, my dream and creativity has ran empty

Great Job.

I have done a project with 8051 microcontroller based running light which has over 50 designs.

I sure did Bill, Inchworm+Unicorn. Makes the development a breeze.

There's actually 94 LEDs (red+blue) in 47 packages. The first one I made up didn't use a PCB, I put the LEDs into an eye shaped aluminium sheet and hand wired them, took hours.

Well now I could have used a PIC with more I/O and ditched the 595's I'll agree with you on that.

But then I would have had to buy one, whereas this design was done entirely out of the bits I already had, apart from the LEDs which I did have to buy.
