of course there are leds along the other sides too.

2019-01-02 00:01:14 UTC  

each led gets the value in that specific spot of the map

2019-01-02 00:01:45 UTC  

and, since the map doesn't change, if another led goes in the same place, it wil gett the same value

2019-01-02 00:02:10 UTC  

so, if for example there is a dark spot, you can see it move along the screen

2019-01-02 00:02:11 UTC  

okay but still to know which types of anims will look nice how many leds

2019-01-02 00:02:23 UTC  

lets say for the deluxe model

2019-01-02 00:02:51 UTC  

i'm pretty sure that 6x4 can do pretty much anything

2019-01-02 00:03:07 UTC  

198*108

2019-01-02 00:03:09 UTC  

consider it's only the border of the screen

2019-01-02 00:03:15 UTC  

edges

2019-01-02 00:03:44 UTC  

the main problem with those kind of animations, is finetuning

2019-01-02 00:03:49 UTC  

like, the scale of the map

2019-01-02 00:04:04 UTC  

too close, and all the values look the same

2019-01-02 00:04:21 UTC  

too far, and it's no longer the "soft" kind of random

2019-01-02 00:04:28 UTC  

how fast it moves

2019-01-02 00:04:36 UTC  

ikwym

2019-01-02 00:04:55 UTC  

that's the kind of "feel good" scienze that designerds are good for

2019-01-02 00:05:13 UTC  

yes maybe i should string something up

2019-01-02 00:05:23 UTC  

but i have only really crappy RGBLEDS

2019-01-02 00:05:27 UTC  

nah

2019-01-02 00:05:34 UTC  

they kindof dont have any diffusion whatsoever

2019-01-02 00:05:36 UTC  

this is neopixels

2019-01-02 00:05:39 UTC  

whoops wasted a dollar

2019-01-02 00:05:42 UTC  

these don't have fiddusion either

2019-01-02 00:05:45 UTC  

diffusion

2019-01-02 00:05:58 UTC  

but i cant make a good blended color on these at all

2019-01-02 00:05:59 UTC  

it just kind of diffuses because it is on a wall

2019-01-02 00:06:18 UTC  

im thinking of spraypainting them white

2019-01-02 00:06:29 UTC
