Pixblasters MS1 is part of the Microchip Get Launched design competition!
Easily Create Professional LED Video DisplaysDue to their high cost and complexity, huge, shiny, beautiful video
displays with thousands of LEDs have always been out of reach of
enthusiasts and small business owners. Pixblasters MS1 changes all
of that.
Pixblasters MS1 enables
DIY enthusiasts and signage professionals, even those with minimal
technical skills, to turn a bunch of addressable RGB LED strips into
immense video LED displays. This FPGA-based LED controller enables
new levels of professional-grade digital signage that cannot be
attained by standard LED modules. The LED strips can be curved and
glued to different surfaces to form giant yet economically viable
video installations that can span entire buildings.

Key Features
Easy to use with any computer, any OS:
Pixblasters connects to any computer as an ordinary external monitor, with no programming needed. You can use it with Raspberry Pi, PC, media boxes, phones, etc. Simply plug in the monitor cable and the controller will smoothly drive the LEDs at the maximum frame-rate of 60 fps.
Straightforward display content and management:
Anything that shows in the selected part of monitor image shows on the LEDs as well. No need for special software for anti-aliasing or fonts. Use any digital signage software and add layered screen divisions, text, animations, video, RSS… LEDs work at their maximum speed and are perfectly synchronized, no matter the number of LEDs and chained MS1 controllers, or the display size.
Display size and resolution:
A single MS1 can control 4.7/17.7 m² (~ 50.6/190.5 ft²) while daisy-chained MS1s can control an LED display of hundreds of square meters using thirty to sixty LED strips. Daisy-chained controllers that drive a total of 16,384 LEDs can support HD LED displays.
Remote controllable and customizable:
Control it remotely from anywhere in the world through the network interfaces of the driving computer. Don’t worry about the LED display’s architecture. Users with special display applications (such as big, real-time timetables and scoreboards) can develop custom software for a computer monitor.
Open source FPGA demo:
Use the hardware platform for experimenting with, and learning about, driving RGB LEDs. Note: the open source FPGA demo design supports a subset of the fully-featured Pixblasters MS1 LED controller.
Display Video from Any ComputerThe Pixblasters MS1 video LED controller connects to any computer and
any operating system (as an ordinary monitor) to display the
user-selected portion of the monitor image on up to 16,384 LEDs at 60
frames per second (FPS). Multiple daisy-chaine
