I am considering having a go at this project but the Ali Express link to the magnet connectors is not working for me. I am from the UK not sure of that makes any difference? Oh and maybe a "Merry Christmas" LED pattern would be good if that is possible as soon it will be Christmas time. Edit: I found the magnet connectors my ad-blocker was not allowing the link to work.
I have also been thinking about how it would be in the future. You could have eg. something like nano-particles in paint. And paint your walls with that. Then connect the wall to a box with IC, receiver etc. inside. And you can send from mobile, tablet, laptop, or PC any photo or video to your walls. So each wall would be like a big LCD monitor. Having musicvideos or just some cozy dolphins swimming around...
Using liquid solder would free up one hand so he could keep the tip from getting pulled by the magnet. Using a heat gun with the liquid solder can help him solder away from the magnets entirely. Better yet, liquid solder could help him soldering 256 leads at once with a modified oven.
@@ivanj46 Some of those magnetic connectors are made out of PBT and will happily melt at a mere sight of a hot air station, let alone attempting to solder their pins with it... Don't ask me how I know 🫣
Could be fixed by a linear voltage regulator or even a current multiplier in series with the PSU. Although for this you'd obviously need 2-3V of headroom
@@JohnSmith-iu8cj While it is true that the efficiency would be lowered due to a linear regulator, how much depends on the headroom and required stable voltage at the output. In addition, it's better for your circuit to be a bit less efficient than to burn out. LED's are not that power hungry, so we're not talking about dozens of wasted watts here.
@@artisticyeti22 at 00:46 you can see some pretty big ringing. By using a linear regulator between the LED's and power supply you can mostly eliminate this ringing, due to the linear regulator behaving like a variable resistor which changes it's resistance as to keep a constant voltage on the LED circuitry. But for this to work, the PSU needs to output a 3-4V more than the LED's need so the linear regulator has enough headroom. So if your LED's are supplied from 5V, you'd need atleast 8-9V from the PSU so that the linear regulator can do it's job and regulate the voltage. An even easier option is a current multiplier, although it's not a stable power supply, it does also prevent huge spikes and noise by acting as a very large capacitor placed between the PSU and LED's, although typically you'll get a voltage drop of 0,8-1,4V between the PSU and LED's.
I did a similar project about 18 years ago and I implemented the water-ripple simulation. I think you should do that with the tiles! It would look fantastic when a ripple can propagate from a single "randomly excited pixel" on one of the tiles and spread as a water-ripple to the other tiles. The choice of reflection, inversion or something else at borders offer some fun variations as well.
Hey just wanted to let you know that the free user limit on fusion can be fixed by just changing you old models and designs to Read-Only. Keep up the great work! Love the project btw
Free Fusion has a limit of 10 active "editable" projects. But you can have a many projects as you wish if you make the previous projects "Read-only". (See the sidebar with "My editable documents"). If you need to edit a read-only project, just make ik editable again. Just make sure you respect the max of 10 editable projects at the same time.
@@martinslade6741 which is why you use the free version, which is free for non commercial use and fully functional with no meaningful limitations for almost any type of non-commercial project. For commercial use, $700 a year isn't a big deal.
@@sirseriously Idk if they still have it, but for a long time all you had to do was email autodesk and register as a business with less than 100k profit annually and they'd give you a startup license for free.
I haven't worked with electronics in quite some time. It is nice to visit the old community and see things are going well. You always do such cool work. Keep it up and good luck to you.
I love those chonky LEDs. Very nice. I was instantly drawn when two of my favorite things, LEDs and magnets, were the stars of your show. Bravo. I love it, but it's too intimidating as a project for me currently. It's hands down more attractive than any other wall project I've seen thus far.
I dont know if it helps, but there are copper tips for the soldering iron that you can buy even at AliX, this will make soldering magnetic parts much easier PS: for those who are beginners with soldering, the tips are removable and generally held in place with just a screw, even if you dont solder magnetic parts, its good to have copper tips as they are better thermal conductors
You can use a heat gun with solder paste, to solder magnets. Another way around this problem is to close magnet field on one side with metal, this will significantly reduce the strength of the magnetic field on the other side
Oh man these look fantastic. I would love to build some of these and hack together some nice patterns or something. Maybe angle the sides so one can make rings? Make a hexagon version?
If you wanna get around the soldering of the leds I recommend either make the the box bigger to hide the legs of the leds. If that doesn't work it may be best make little holes in the box where you can fit in the Led-legs. It may be a little annoying, but if you get the box size right you can just slot in the Platine and the box will prevent the legs from touching anything problematic
If you think you could make them hex shape, you could make a catan board where the lights represent the resources of the tile and maybe even have the dice number displayed. You'd would need to 3d print spaces for the towns and roads to sit between tiles.
Those cells consume up to 2A each, in your case it's unnecessarily dense. If you want to chain them properly you should go for the 12V version of the nenopixel.
The link is truncated because it's too long. (see the ellipsis on the end). TH-cam being TH-cam only puts the real URL in the text, and the href contains an evil tracker link (bait&switch style). The real URL ends in "magnetConnectors", however it seems to lead only to through-hole connectors. Do you also have the link for the SMD connectors from your last video?
The problem you had with Fusion, if you put some of your projects on "Read-Only" you can save new projects again and later you can put the projects you want to work on back to "Editable", but only have 10 active Editable projects at a time
My thoughts so far: - You could make a magnetic or metallic jig to solder the connectors in the proper place quite easily - You should probably solder the connectors first and the LED after that
I made this exact project a while ago but not using a led matrix but with a led band all around a cube and a diffuser in front of it. You’re version is really cool !
Here's an idea: I've always wanted a way to communicate to other vehicles around me on the highway... even just one word could mean a whole lot to people. For instance, we saw an accident on the opposite side of the freeway, and SOOOO many people were stuck in traffic behind it... many didn't know which lane was open so everyone was causing issues jumping back and forth across lanes to whichever lane might be open... They just needed a note... a sign to let them know which side had the accident and which lane was open.... I think a lighted sign, where you could snap together a long brick and type out "Left Lane Open" and put it on the cab of your car while everyone is inching along.... could help a lot of people. OR siting behind a car that is dumping oil all over the ground.... maybe the guy doesn't know their car is about to self destruct. Maybe he needs a sign in his rear view (mirrored letters of course) that says: "Major oil leak- you" You never know, it could be really good karma coming your way.
I don't know if it's feasible or not, because of potential size problems, but these leds look like they might just slide in some 4pin sockets soldered to the board instead of soldering leds directly. (?) It might solve your replacement issue.
This is a concept that I thought about before as well. Really cool to see it implemented. 90 degree connectors would be cool to make cubes and 3d shapes. I also want to make these.
To reduce the amount of simple mistakes in the PCB design, just print it out 1:1 scale on a sheet of paper how it would look once its fabricated. I caught many mistakes this way which were not obvious when viewed through a monitor.
with the yet unsoldered through-hole LEDs stuck in place using the black 3D-printed hole plate, you could give solder paste a try for a speedier soldering flip the board upside down, smear solder paste around the holes, and put it in the oven. ... and: maybe adhesive tape can help to temporarily fix the magnetic connectors during soldering with an attracting soldering iron
RE soldering the magnet clips on, an easier way to do this would be to add a bit of flux to the pads, insert the connector, tin the tip of your iron with solder, then hold the magnet connector in place with tweezers. I would probably use a chisel or knife tip for this, as you can hold it at a very steep angle and have maximal thermal linkage. Touch the fattest, widest part of the tip to the BACK of the pins, as far away from the magnet as possible. This will allow you to tack each pin down. Additional flux is a must for this, as the flux will allow the solder to travel off your iron tip and onto the pads. Then you can let go with the tweezers, since the connector will now be sufficiently held in place by a little bit of solder. From there, you can easily go in and solder up each pin more sufficiently one at a time. Use the back of the pins (similar position as when you tacked them) to keep the iron as far away from the magnet as possible, and flow the solder in from the side closest to the magnet.
No electronic skills here at all, but stuff like this makes me wanna learn but I am already doing school for my passion path. Maybe eventually. I have the patience to solder at entire wall of those tiles. Very cool project. I was anxiously waiting to hear you say "Version 23 arrived in the mail" :P
this is way cooler than a let strip because it allows maximum customizability, and it's really modular. produce a single type of tile, and make any design. edit: this already exists in a shape of a hexagon. but making other shapes would also be really cool
I would buy these, or a kit of parts, in a heartbeat. I’d love to see a bouncy ball routine where the movement if the ball was determined by the shape of the tiles.

Very nice job. I expect power to become an issue with larger setups. Maybe each board can have its own dc-dc regulator with capacities to catch current spikes and to allow the small pins to pass trough plenty of power.

You should make a couple tetrominos out of them and slot them together while the edge lightning effect is running and watch them get absorbed into each other
If it was buyable product mass produced to be cheap enough and being controlled from one external controller reprogramable without need to solder custom jig I would probably buy some ... those look very cool :)
8:21 if you’re talking about the “only 10 editable documents at a time” rule they have, you should be able to set some project you’re not working on right now to read only mode and it should let you work on more stuff
You could try programming these to play Conway's Game of Life or some other cellular automata like that. Since each tile has its own computing power, these should scale indefinitely.
Continuing with the motiff of "wireless", maybe there could be an ESP-32 controlled by bluetooth and also get its power wirelessly as in wireless chargers
