Re: What happens when a bored EE gets ahold of 57,600 LEDs
This is definitely one of the coolest things I have seen recently.
The Lampduino I am building pales in comparison. I have a measly 8x8 grid! Last edited by Bryan Herbst : 07-07-2011 at 21:13.

So.... I want to write something snarky about the suit Will-I-Am wore at the World Championship, but I'm fighting the urge.
Perhaps next year's championship's entertainment should feature Squirrel's brother?   Blake

Heard about it again on the radio yesterday (the hosts called it "nerd cool"), and it is featured on Engadget today!

57,600 LEDs cost a lot of money, even if they're only a dime or a quarter a piece.
The flex circuit boards and automated soldering are also expensive. But the real expensive part is the six months it took to figure it all out.

neat! It's all over the tech/geek/nerd blogs. Interesting about the batteries, everyone is so concerned about battery life...he has 5 sets of batteries for it already. They fit in your pockets, one on each side.
