That would be an awesome case for a computer. Positioned so that, from roughly where your head is, it would be as if you're seeing the actual cpu's location.
I wonder if it would fit inside my case, fractal meshify 2 I have only only one 64x64 panel right now I wonde rif that would fit and if there is a similar project that can use just one panel, also mabe sync with the ARGB effect and just display simple numerical value for temp and maybe colors

Hi, really nice result, i like the way you mixed several technologies such as shaders, led pannel, raspberry pi. I am so wondering where i could find informations/lessons on how To mix technos this way. Arduino is fun, electronics also, but i wish To get further in making more "intelligent stuff" with computer - raspberry stuff. Thanks for sharing the result !!!
This is wicked cool work. Glad you're getting some good external press from it as well!! Not to humble-brag or anything, but I love that I was subbed before this cube hit the web. Lol. I take wins where I can get them.
@@ThereOughtaBe lol, no doubt. That's what you get for being popular on UA-cam. I'm just stoked that you're getting some good coverage on this around the web. Your projects are very nicely done and you deserve some recognition for that! Plus, I see the subbing thing sort of like 'discovering' a band before they get popular. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Thank you for the video. To solve your problem with a lack of power supply, I would advise you to use the principle of quickly displaying graphic information with lines. In this case, you will have only 3 lines glowing at one time with very low power consumption. If you achieve high speed, then it will not be noticeable to the human eye. But you need to check the hardware for the possibility of such speeds.
Or he could just dim the entire thing to around 70%... Your suggestion would dim it's appearance to under 5%, and wouldn't work anyway since the FPS is bound to be way too low for that; you'd need an FPS of about 2000. The hardware is already using multiplexing; you're suggesting simulated multiplexing on a multiplexed device, on which you control the brightness anyway via software... Besides, there's no problem when he doesn't need it all lit up.
It would be really crazy if you made a 3D model of the CPU Chips (all the CPU Sensors) and then used color and maybe Stats too, at 100% it should just go up in Flames haha, great Cube
Three questions 1) did you need to modify the adafruit matrix bonnet to support 64x64? I heard it had to be modified but that was a while ago, do they make one thar supports 64x64 now? 2) coudl you use a pi zero 2 w instead of a full pi 2, it's all i have besides a 3b 3) is the code writen specifically for ryzen or could it work for an Intel CPU without needed to rewrite anything?
This would be really cool for displaying content like deadmau5's cube. If one could pipe display output from TouchDesigner into those led panels it would be almost trivial. I need one of these.
Nice that looks amazing! Great work Btw may I ask why you didn’t shrank the frame further to make panels closer to each other without a black border between them? Did it made the frame weaker?
Maybe one could shave off another millimeter and glue them on instead of sticking them into a frame. But the panels have a finite thickness and will eventually touch on the inside.
Hi, I was trying to find a panel for this project but wasn't able to find one with the same dimensions as yours. Did someone experience the same problem?
Moinsen, habe dein Projekt mal nachgebaut. Der Code funktioniert immer noch perfekt. War fast Plug&Play. Kurze Frage: Wie schaut es denn mit der Sicherheit des Raspberry aus? Wenn ich read only mache werden ja keine Sicherheitsupdates installiert. Der Raspi hängt ja am Netz. Hast du den Cube noch aktiv in Betrieb oder war das nur fürs Video? Grüße
Das ist eine gute Frage. Er ist bei mir noch immer täglich im Einsatz. Wurde lediglich vor einem Monat in ein künstliches Kaminfeuer umgebaut (andere Anordnung und anderer Shader). Wenn du ganz sicher sein möchtest, kannst du ohne riesigen Aufwand per dd eine nicht schreibgeschützte Kopie vorhalten. Einmal im Monat per dd drauf, updaten, mit dd zurück und wieder das ro-Skript ausführen. Ich denke aber nicht, dass das in der Praxis relevant ist. "Am Netz" heißt ja wahrscheinlich immer noch hinter einem Router und da er im Gegensatz zu manch unsäglichem IoT-Gerät nicht mit einem Server spricht, sehe ich kaum eine Angriffsfläche. Sollte es doch irgendeine relevante Sicherheitslücke geben, ist der Cube selbst auch kein besonders kritisches System und solange die Schadsoftware nicht weiß wie sie das Dateisystem im Schreibmodus wieder einhängt, ist sie nach dem nächste reboot weg, da nunmal schreibgeschützt. Da das Teil aber nicht von sich aus mit dem Netz interagiert, gilt selbst das nur für Schadsoftware, die schon im lokalen Netz ist, und der hilft der Cube dann auch nicht weiter. Also: Ich bin kein Sicherheits-Experte, aber ich sehe kein Szenario, in dem der Würfel ein Problem darstellt.
@@ThereOughtaBe Top, ja hängt hinter einem Router. Benutzt du immer noch das Python Script unter Linux oder auch den LedCubeFeeder unter Windows? Habe das Programm mal mit Virustotal durchprüfen lassen. Insgesamt 6 Detections. Denke das sind False Positives aber bin da bisschen paranoid.

@@johanneslol5034 Sollte 16 sein, aber am Ende kommt es darauf an, was der LedCubeFeeder daraus macht. Würde mich aber wundern, wenn er die Auslastung der Kerne statt der Threads ausgibt.
Hi, Awesome project dude!! I just built 2 cubes and all seams to be okay except I’m having trouble compiling the cpu-stats-gl.cpp would you please point me in the right direction 🧐 first where did you place cpp file when you compiled it?
The location of the cpp should not matter as long as you executive g++ from that directory (in my case, I lazily had it in my home dir). Note that in the example g++ command, I have set a relative path for "rpi-rgb-led-matrix", which you should verify along with all the other libs. Haven't thought of the relative path which is unlikely to be correct if you just cloned my repo and naturally placed "rpi-rgb-led-matrix" somewhere else. In any case, without an error message, I am just guessing here...
@@ThereOughtaBe Almost there I hope can you clarify what will out contain? float temp? out = str(temperature) + "," + ",".join(map(str, sorted(cores, reverse=True))) in py script since psutil does not seam to work on WIN10 using open hardware as a substitute so I'm remaking your script :)
Yes, it is a string with comma separated values. First one is temperature followed by the load of twelve threads. You might want to modify a few things in the cpp file if your CPU has a different number of threads or a different temperature range. In any case, you should already see the animation in grayscale without the Python script. Would love to see your build. It is nice to see that my project is reproduced.
But why not use a cheap low res projector, split the image into 3, and make the cube image move when you move your head? Using some prisms with special properties (sort of like a dichroic cube but not actually dichroic) that could do this kind of cool thing with a projector and it actually be better because the image would look more 3D than a flat panel of LEDs.
