rybitski Posted May 17, 2006 Report Share Posted May 17, 2006 A while back on hackaday and other sites things were poping up about computer controlled disco dance floors... More or less whole floors covered in light up squares containing leds. Doing some research on google I found this site that actually sells the controll boards for these floors, possibly this could be used for your project. Here is the link: http://www.dropoutdesign.com/products/ddf.htmlThe unassembled board is $35, but according to the site there is alot of soldering including surfacemount soldering... Come to think of it that site seems like a rip off... Eh, sorry I'm not much help... good luck with this one... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muhammad Abu Bakar Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 Hello Nissangaw !I don't have to say much, except 50 X 50 = 2500 LED's, not just 250! ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
