RGB LED cube 8x8x8 (5)

[patje7]

LED is cool. We have new streetlight with led's on the road now, much better.chle

[genrous11]

nice



[represarias]

which is price?

[TheDymekPL]

Ej Polska!! Mam propozycje! Przejmujemy ten filmik??

[casemodder89]

@marti10vh led cube vers. mac book : both is pretty useless, but looks cool somehow.

[mmccormackjr]

its the nexus live wallpaper lol

[George3THEgreat]

where do i get one?

[MrLEDLamp]

@George3THEgreat

Hey,Happy New Year!!

i can offer you more living and magic picture about LED lamps,just like the lamp shown on my picture,our lamp with color-chaning function.leave me a message or email me at myexpress001@gmail.com

i will reply to you soon.TKS.

[OldTimeyJunk]

Sorry, but $380 is a little pricey.

I could make my own for cheaper...

[appidydafoo]

I love you!

[ScottoRobotoOfficial]

It's a Energon cube :D

[CPA4KA]

How they change colours?

[Akyriuz]

we have found the cube ! , now we can destroy megatron

[axelasdf]

now octuple it.

[axelasdf]

I kinda want this to be the new Knight Driver interface.

[Taternator2101]

they should make a sphere one of thoes

[ferkyou420]

Would be awesome to roll to

[azrial4421]

Reminds me of lite brite, ohhh i miss that thing.

[markusthut]

reminds me of the Nexus One background

[spazitude80]

that is friggin awesome homie. Very cool.

[RoboticusMusic]

Could you film this in 3d so it makes sense?

[HHJJ2120]

it,s nice light

[vxJDvx]

deadmau5 called....

[KillerNumberX]

this is just a stupid idea. colors in a box. woo hoo

[Juefawn]

3d snake!

....

-_-

ha another guy thought the same thing. lmao

[xheadshot420x]

i want my room wall to be like that

[pat20105]

epic

[Menrobbie]

will it blend ?;o

[garieto]

can i.. can i have it

[liamgreen94]

Where do i get one from if i am in the UK?

[flyingcubic]

AWESOME!!!

[crudip]

the beginnings of future 3d displays

[ferretyluv]

Building a giant wall of these would be great for a rave.

[feaky44]

thats sick :O

[mickjc75]

Looks like there is a blue led burnt out, 23seconds, 4th up from the bottom

[BrunaRCT]

Muito legal *----------------------*

[grin60]

I want to take a seat on it!

[mmichaud08]

can you get me the specs on those leds

[killerbeenl]

Would be fun for 3d snake game :D

[SOWHATIMADEIT]

funny

[DelGeeZee]

what do i need to make one of these? I am serious about making one in the near future.

[4kx]

Play on it tetris;d

[SiMuLaTa33]

wow. o.O :)

[OnceNaHMonkey]

Holy crap! It's SNAKE!.. But lots of them.. in a cube..

[CheetahJacob]

it says the URL does not work?

[toan328]

May i buy one ? email me the price if i may. thanks.

kaisolomon@live.com

[EA1088]

Lovely. Though I'd love to see a longer vid with more configs.

[AreWePeople]

I would be interested in the possibilities of using that project as a visual for a game. Perhaps a 3d rendition of the classic Snake?

[maradrtic]

Where did you buy RGB leds? And how much costs the LEDs? Thx for reply.

[cosmogang]

I want like 4 of these to put around me for live shows.

[SiamLoveLoveLove]

impressive

[MrDancingmod]

where can i buy kewl stuffs like this?

[itchyfingers89]

Wow that's so cool, it's like being in another dimension.

[No10kevin]

looks good

[NORMAN3016]

omg... where can a  get one of doese...??

[eduxas0]

for more information please follow the link in video description

[Bjo15]

@eduxas0 make a 1024*720 one in the same size and ill buy it for 1000 dollars

[bfbforever]

sarpado

[RoBeRtxRoBoT]

Could I buy one?

[eduxas0]

Yes. Please visit the link in video description

[THISNAMEOWNS]

3D snake!

[3rddecade]

@THISNAMEOWNS that would be so amazing!

[tomek123kotek]

@THISNAMEOWNS ill make sure to program that for my 4x4x4 green one that i made fully by myself

[alan19861]

can u send me the codes for this please ?

[eduxas0]

Please send a request to info(at)lumisense(dot)com and we'll reply to you with a schematics and/or source code

[mozeus5]

This is kewl. what would be really kewl is to have pixelated glass cubes or plastic cubes like TV's. then use lasers to mimic the colors. Would that be true 3-d then?

[orbitalchiller]

That's so cool

[ferayalaarrambide]

very cool one, another question regarding the leds, did you use the ones with 4 pins? or the ones with 2?

[VeryTucker]

2 I beleve=1 color and 4=multi color

[bedeone]

@VeryTucker if it has got an internal decoder you can adress 4 different states with 2 wires (plus a ground).

[VeryTucker]

thanks.

[xefef]

@bedeone Some leds can be controlled with PWM. 1wire + Gnd.

[xefef]

@xefef RGB LEDs capable of displaying 4096 colors each

Frame rate: 60Hz

Refresh rate: 60Hz

Yes those one are controlled with PWM.  4096 colors would use a lots of wires without PWM :D

[woobspyro]

4 pins

[mrmotu1974]

cool stuff dude, btw what are the name of the track and artist

[alonenotareyou]

oh thats cool!!!

[HeyGuessWhoItsMe]

WOW, where can I get one?

[ferayalaarrambide]

hey pal.. which led did you use??... i found on ebay slow flashin.. will those work??

please advice....

[eduxas0]

nope, those won't work. You need RGB LEDs that allow you to control each color individually.

[ChemicalComedown]

Amazing piece of abstract beauty ! ! !

5***** and Fav ; )

Thanks for sharing . . .

[ksandom40]

Those are impressive specs for one of these. Well done!

[theyoungster2]

holy crud.

[JmH551]

holy crud???

[Splooshiba]

1 for each column colour, and 1 for each floor. so... for normal LEDs 72 pins

for RGB, 200 i think

but you can use shift registers

[powderGAMEER]

O MY FKING GOOD AWESOME

[TheTravisWay]

beautiful!

[ScHalKeBoB]

how much is it

[master7447]

great work thanks for sharing that

[cbrowncolors]

Amazing!! I'd love to read more about your project. Do you have a blog up somewhere or forum posts?

[C1R1L0]

impresionante !

[bigobrother123]

its like that windows screen saver with the tubes

[tytan88]

this is sooo awesome! I love it

[TheLuisinho666]

cool

[XECKTOR87]

very nice job!!!!!!!!!

[Sp33dstix]

Oh man, I can only think of some awesome things to do with one of these..Like get the led's in the middle of the cube emulate a 3d object. The detail wouldn't be so great but still awesome.

[dyldyljkj19]

looks like it cost a fortune! Nice job!

[goloet]

that looks sick

[X45cobra]

Pretty Colors :D

[truviet911]

we need a tutorial for this guys.

[ovidiupatronu]

that would be nice !

[SSUN]

sorry for stupid question. but.. how did u connect each other? I mean are they(LEDs) connected as a plate and plate or cube? and how..? did u just use legs? please let me know little bit! ;)

[eduxas0]

To interconnect LEDs Ive used copper ties (rods) and bare wires. Firstly, eight vertical planes were built. Then they were connected by a bunch of horizontal ties. You may follow a link in video description to see some photos taken while the lattice was being assembled.

[SSUN]

wow~ thanks man!! :)

That will be big help to me !!!

I should check that web site.

Cheers :)

[psnthenation]

i would buy that if i wasnt broke. :(

[WTFuckRemix]

how pretty

[jasonguyperson]

perfect time of yer to get free LEDs... i think i'll make a 16x16... o_O

[eduxas0]

good luck with that :)

[celisluis]

Friend, has a web or mail, me gustaria make the equal one, which are the requirements that I must have, tine algun scheme of the bucket to construct,

[mungaman]

What kind of hardware did you use?

[eduxas0]

Custom made hardware, which consists of three PCBs. One with 24 8-bit shift registers. One with two microcontrollers. And one with 8 transistors. And of course 512 LEDs.

[mungaman]

I understand. Any reason for two microcontrollers?  Couldn't this have been accomplished with one? Sorry for the dumb questions, I am a bit of a newbie but understand the basic premise of the shift registers.

[eduxas0]

The reason is quite simple. I had a bunch of microcontrollers from Microchip lying around and waiting to be used for something. One of them (PIC18F4550) had built-in support for USB. But it did lack computation power. The other (dsPIC30F4011) had all the required power to handle PWM and related stuff, but it couldnt be connected to PC on its own (parallel printer port would have been an option in this case, but I just dont like it) :) So I ended up with two microcontroller solution.

[mungaman]

Did you buy the LEDs in bulk? From what I can find, thats over $500 worth of LEDs!

[eduxas0]

If you had to pay only $0.4 for a single LED, that would be only over $200 worth of LEDs :) You may find RGB LEDs at this price on this site: w w w . v-electronics . c o m

[dumle29]

were do u get those RGP LED´s?

[bozar88]

it looks amazing!

[hapoo82]

How are you driving and addressing the LEDs? Do you have a schematic? Howto? Looks awesome!

[eduxas0]

The leds are driven in such a way that only one plane of leds (64 leds) is lit up at a particular time. The microcontroller scans through all 8 planes faster than the eye can notice. This gives an illusion of all the leds beeing controlled at the same time (it's called multiplexing). This type of control significantly reduces the number of required microcontroller io-ports. To further reduce this number 8-bit shift registers have been used, but I'm afraid i don't have any schematics.
