Document Setup #1
Description
Hi, I'm developing a Python application for Raspberry Pi that generates audio-reactive LED signals for LED strips and panels: https://github.com/segfault16/modular-led-controller-workstation
I'm trying to hook up more than 1000 LEDs to the Raspberry Pi (segfault16/modular-led-controller-workstation#100) and I faced the issue of the GPIOs not being fast enough for that amount of LEDs.
Now I've stumbled across your project and it seems that Raspberry + Teensy + Octo could do the trick and your project be a very nice solution!
A few questions though:
- What exactly does the main.go do? Read and stream video to LEDs? Or rather images that are streamed row-by-row?
- The streaming is done via websocket? So I could modify the code to just receive data and pump it out to the LEDs? The input format would be the JSON struct
Incoming? What are the fields of the struct (e.g. AudioDimming)? - Do I need to run the code on RaspberryPi? How do I hook up Raspberry and Teensy? Do I need to configure Teensy somehow (sorry for the dumb questions, haven't worked with Teensy yet)?
