This project powers a 256 individually addressable 2D LED board wrapped in a snake-like matrix using an ESP32. The project features 3 or 4 distinct animations written in C++, with one of the animations being ASCII art, where rows and columns of ASCII characters are translated into 4x6 bit LED pixels on the board, which is indexed from 0 to 255.
- Individually Addressable LEDs: Control 256 WS2812 LEDs in a 2D matrix.
- Snake-like Matrix Layout: The LED board is wrapped in a snake pattern for unique display.
- Custom Animations: 3-4 C++ animations, including:
- ASCII Art Animation: Converts 4x6 pixel ASCII characters into LED displays.
To run this project, you must install the following:
- Espressif IDE: This project runs on the ESP32 microcontroller, and Espressif's IDE is required for building and uploading the code.
-
Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/your-username/happy-thursday-led-2d-ws2812-esp32.git
-
Open the project in Espressif IDE.
-
Compile and upload the code to your ESP32.
Once uploaded, the project should run fine, and the LED animations will start on your 256 LED matrix.
