RGB LED panels are a great way of displaying colorful texts, images, and animation. In this 3-part tutorial, I am going to demonstrate how to hookup our 16×32 RGB LED panel kit to an Arduino Uno board and run some demo sketches. Our 16×32 RGB LED matrix panel kit includes everything you need to connect it to an Arduino Uno board. The kit includes: One 16×32 RGB LED matrix panel One RGB connector shield for Arduino Uno One IDC cable to connect the RGB matrix panel to the RGB shield One power supply connector for the RGB matrix Note that the power supply

Today, we have added a new and colorful product to our Tindie store. It is a colorful RGB LED matrix panel kit that includes a 16×32 RGB panel, a RGB connector shield for Arduino Uno, a 2×8 IDC cable, and a power supply connecting cable for the RGB panel. The RGB panel operates at 5V and requires 12 digital I/O pins of Arduino Uno for full control of the display. We designed the RGB matrix connector shield to allow super easy connection setup between the LED display panel and the Arduino Uno board. Features: Operates at 5V (2A rated power supply

Explore Embedded, a Banglore, India based startup has introduced a modular and wifi enabled LED matrix display named Starling, that can not only showcase text messages but also notifications from social networking websites, live scores from sports events websites, weather data from online weather services, and more. Starling comes in an easily cascadable modular design with one master module that features the ESP8266 device for Wifi connection and other slave modules to expand the display size horizontally. Each module is powered by Atmega8 microcontroller that stores fonts and custom characters LED patterns in a look up table, drives its own 8×8 LED matrix,
