LED installation for the ‘Hsinchu Biomedical Science Park Exhibition Center’:

An 10 meter long installation, consisting of 30 moving triangles with controllable RGB LEDs in them, acting as a moving display. A XMOS controller driving 60 stepper motors, with about 100 meters of HL1606 digitally controlled LED strips composing a moving LED matrix of 30×102 pixels. The concept and design was done by Taiwanese partners. Interactive Matter only provided the electronics and programming.

The project is not open source, but the best parts will get integrated into XMOS open source Application & Modules. Everything left out is not ready for prime time.
