FPGA Control of 10,000 LEDs
Posted November 28, 2012 by Chris
“A major focus of the SoundPuddle project right now is building a new circuit board to run the installation and carry it through the next two years. The installation is controlled by a Papilio FPGA, which connects the other parts of the system – the microphone and audio input hardware, the flash memory, and control hardware for the LED strips. The Zpuino, a softcore running inside the FPGA, handles most of the logic for the system.”
