RGB LED Matrix Raspberry Pi HAT

This Hardware Attached on Top (HAT) is based on the fantastic work of Henner Zeller who developed open source software and hardware that allow connecting a PxMatrix (Hub75) type of RGB LED matrices to the Raspberry Pi single-board computer. Hand-wiring the matrices to the individual pins of the Pi can be a quite tedious, so this HAT allows a more direct, plug-and-play approach. The HAT works great with the software library “rpi-rgb-led-matrix”.

Usage:

• Easily connect your P6, P10, or any other P-series RGB LED panel matrix to the Raspberry Pi
• Download/Install the rpi-rgb-led-matrix software (available on Github):
  make -C examples-api-use
  sudo examples-api-use/demo -D0
• Use the utilities (optional)
• Write your own programs in the native C++, or using one of the included bindings (Python or C#)

Features:

• Easily connect your P6, P10, or any other P-series RGB LED panel matrix to a Raspberry Pi
• Separate power ports for both the LED matrix and the Raspberry Pi
• The original, open-source design was done by the fantastic maker Henner Zeller
