Afternoon all.

And this is what it's intended to be one square of...

Don't ask me why, I just build the stuff... the artistic/performance side of things is not my problem.

It does this as well...

I assume it;s only capable of doing what it does after you finished correcting your valued customers errors.

The delphi stuff that I was working on yesterday and the pic Pascal program all come off that site...

I have absolutely no idea what the attraction is, but there you go, that's wot makes horse races I suppose.

Am I missing something or is that really as pointless as it looks?

Also begs the question, why bother with LED's? Just shove some standard light fittings and a few 40w bulbs in there

Um.

Something like that.

Since the site is in French, and neither of us are Francophone, it was a bit problematic... I told him to order the wrong chips PCF8574 instead of PCF8574A which added a layer of difficulty... coz the addresses are different.

Instead of recompiling the Pascal source, I chose to reformat the compiler assembler listing file to give me something I could assemble under MPLAB...

Then after a morning's work, it was simplicity itself() to alter the PIC program & get the thing to flash leds.

I couldn't possibly comment....

It may look quite good once it's all done & dusted...

You can do pretty patterns of flashing lights as each of those squares is individually controllable.

Which matches did you see?

LEDs are much lower power & much much faster than light bulbs.

Unfortunately, they're also much dimmer.

You could do it with light bulbs but it wouldn't be nearly so interesting....
