Summary


In this chapter, you learned how to create an LED matrix in a pair of custom-made LED glasses. The principles behind the LED matrix are the same as in any matrix that you might use in another project. On the code side, we had a look at some pattern designs and how to generate animations. This chapter introduces the basic concepts, but as you progress you can build upon this knowledge and develop your own patterns and animations.

In this chapter, we also had a look at what the custom casings looks like when cut using a laser cutter. If you do not have access to a laser cutter don't worry, as you can still achieve the same results using cutting tools and materials such as plastic, wood, or cardboard if you like. The only difference is that it might take a bit longer to cut. The material for the frame also gives you a lot of personalization options, so I recommend you test a few materials before you decide.

The remaining projects will also implement laser-cut designs, but remember that...
