After we came up with the Bi-color LED Matrix Driver Module kit, we have been looking around for interesting projects to work with it. You may be interested in some of the projects we have put up at instructables using this LED Matrix kit. Instructable to build a Arduino (SPI) 7 Bi-color LED Matrix Scrolling

Ever since my addressable RGB LED strips (WS2812B) came from Aliexpress, I’ve been fascinated with LED projects. Following up on my success with my Charlieplexed LED clock, I wanted to create something with more Jazz.. While browsing google images, I came across an instructable for an Arduino Infinity Mirror and the brain cells started working

A zoetrope is a mechanical device that animates a series of pictures by spinning them fast enough that the images appear to merge together and move, My digital zoetrope works on a similar principal, by flashing the LEDs while they are spinning it is possible to display text, patterns and possible even simple animations. My
