Star Wars Day – Raspberry Pi RGB Matrix Display

4 May 2020 Stewart

Today is the 4th May, which means Star Wars day.

Star Wars Day - RGB Matrix - 4th May 2020

So I’ve added a new scrolling image showing a series of images from each of the 9 films in the three trilogies playing on my Raspberry Pi controlled RGB LED Matrix Display. It’s 4946 x 32 pixels long. Shown on my 64 x 32 Matrix Display outside my house. I’m also going to add a light display using my RGB LED NeoPixels (ws2811, ws2812, ws281x LEDs).

The video below is just over 5 minutes long showing the full sequence.

More details see:

  • Raspberry Pi controlled RGB LED Matrix Outdoor Display
  • Thank you messages – LED Matrix Display – Coronovirus / Covid-19
  • Raspberry Pi or Arduino NeoPixels (Smart RGB LEDs with ws281x) – including Raspberry Pi 2
  • Neopixel GUI for the Raspberry Pi
  • @Home activities for children during Covid-19 Coronovirus lockdown
  • Creating practical science lessons for home schooling during Covid-19 lockdown
