Nice idea !

I´m currently working on a picture upload routine to PIN2DMD maybe also video.

By connecting 2 controllers to windows you can address them individually by using

a slightly modified firmware and driver. You can scale that until you run out of USB

ports.

Why not ? Everybody is invited to add the needed code to the project

I ment that as your where saying add another for a picture routine , just opting instead of a matrix panel add a tft

Do you think 1/8 refresh scan can be done, or it need a more powerful board?

Both of this can surely be done, but it is definitely not in focus for our project which is colorizing pinball DMD

output to a RGB LED Panel.

However our code can form a good base for both and I meant it honest that everybody can take and modify it for his

personal private project. We definitely don´t have the time for that right now.

Here is a good sample project for TFT with a STM32F4

Understood 100% my friend. I'm not saying to derail from the main focus, it's just sharing ideas in the table. Good to know it can be done, so any attacking it can know it's just possible.

 

Thanks for the links!

Aaaaaaah so cool!

 

I just can't wait to get my hands on this thing!

My question: Is the standard brightness bright enough for a room with normal lighting?

Has somebody already changed the brightness?

 

Thanks for the vid.

The topper idea is really cool! :D
About the size of the LED panels....as i can see and after some  measuring, the visible area is almost exact the same as a Vishay panel.
