synopsis

Freely translated: traffic (scam) light.


Ingrediënten:

Resultaat:


new iteration

Since we have some things that speak ARTnet, it's time to upgrade the traffic light to give it 3 RGB pixels of ARTnet.

Notes on the traffic light itself:

  • the rubber gaskets wrap around the light, and are then placed from the outside with the thin seal wrapped around the flange like a reversed bicycle tire operation (it's fiddly)
  • the current connector cabling is:
    • wide connector starting with black on the left: GND, B1,G1,R1, B2,G2,R2
    • small connector: B3,G3,R3
    • single pin connector: 6.5V

Some notes on the bitlair ART-net used for the LED sleeves:

  • they listen to universe 0
  • they don't start at address 0 but skip 4 pixels (offset 12)
  • the first pixel is top right (looking at the simstrip, the last pixel on this grid is not used)
  • the order of the ESP12 module of the pixels are (in RGB): 5, 4, 0; 2, 15, 13; 12, 14, 16: clockwise looking at the top, starting near the serial pins

todo

  • PCB to hold the ESP and 3.3v regulator
  • better power supply (>2.5A at 6.2V>9V)
