- This video goes through what it took to make this self enclosed LED cube.
Heres the sourcecode for the website / app that runs on my phone: github.com/mik...
And here is the source for the code that runs on the cube: github.com/mik...
Find out more about the project and me on my blog: mikecann.co.uk/
Link to my LED Matrix Toy Project: mikecann.co.uk...
BTW you might be interested in my current project: battletabs.com :)
Hey guys, it has come to attention that there are some people out there that are trying to sell fake LED cubes using my video above.
Note I have not given authorization for this and I have nothing to do with their scam.
If you are looking to build your own cube or get involved with a community effort Ross Harvey is working on a very interesting project for that here: forums.parallax.com/discussion/172696/p2-p2-cube/p1
Yes just saw an ad on Facebook at a really cheap price. Knew it was too good to be true. Reverse image searched which brought me here. Will report when the ad pops up again on my feed.
@@stevensmith1788 I did the same, I have the link to the scam FB insta shop. How best to report this for exposure? (Already reported the ad on fb)
i've stopped buying anything i see on facebook
thank you for comfirming this as i was about to purchase it but the price was too good to be true
I just saw this on FB with your video. I reported it as scam. Awesome piece btw
Hey hey, I'm the guy that wrote the code mentioned at 16:23! ✨This is amazing work, man!
Awesome! Thanks again for all your hard work with your library!
Incredible !! 😲 I've seen many LED (Project ideas) snooping TH-cam.. Visual Displays Cubes and Curtains.. And This I think blows them all away.. (AWSOMLY) Cool.👍
amazing project. you need to program a fish swimming inside of a cube.
Yes, I dreamed about this some some time ago, only it was post-apocalyptic and they were just relics. Eventually someone puts bluetooth in there and it becomes a holographic gesture interface game, with some cubes quite large, smaller pixels though. Then the world collapses...
Oh that would be awesome! Ill have a think on that :)
That would be Dope
It's just no a real project until you make a trip to Bunnings, then back again for more bits and more bits. So love Bunnings. Well done mate, great job. Love Your Work
Imagine taking this back 500 years in time and declaring yourself a wizard.
Hi Michael, I have only just seen this video and I am blown away with it. It's another deep rabbit hole that I must resist going down. I am certainly going to have a look at your other stuff. Thanks for sharing, and I hope mother and baby are doing well😂😂😂
Deadmau5 wants to know your location
Perth Australia if he wants to come DJ here ill show him around :)
this is the most goated comment
Beat me to it 😁
neat.
Just so you know, your video was suggested in my feed by TH-cam. Glad I watched. Thanks for making it!
I was wondering why I have suddently started to get a bunch of views
In my office, I always have the most unusual cool toys. I HAVE TO MAKE THIS!!!! This may be the coolest things I've seen in years. Congrats in making me drool like I did as a 7 year old waiting to open Xmas gifts!
LED cube turned up to 11!
Great work, awesome!
Awesome job. Thank you so much for sharing. Lots of love and respect from here in Iran 🇮🇷
that is so sick. something to be really proud of that you created this. You should definitely add an n-body simulation. Easy to code, easy to scale how computationally intense you want it, and would look amazing.
if this was a commercial product it would be in my cart immediately. good luck with the baby. subscribed.
Don't give up easily, this is why. Amazing Led cube!
Wow. That's putting out some serious Mesmer! Definitely raises the bar for blinkenschtoff
Finally a TH-camr in my own back yard! Perth REPRESENT! Great work.
🤜
Love the idea of a separate control app on the phone. I ordered some panels on Aliexpress recently and was just searching for assembly ideas when I came across your blog. Thanks for this detailed video.
You need to submit this to the patent office fast and contact Shark Tank. Pure genius! You could scale this up too! Bravo!
I was actually talking about how surprising it is that Nintendo had not come up with a Nintendo 3D game cube and we were talking about the concept of how you would play with it, this video is the closest I have seen to that concept, awesome work.
Congratulations on the kid, I'm sure that this project among others will be excellent teaching tools in the upcoming future.
Deadmau5 would love this :D!
Awesome, why this channel is not popular.
Right! I was wondering the same thing! This guy needs baby stuff for the new baby and electronic components so he can make more awesome stuff/videos! I definitely liked and subbed.
@@mikehensley78 Ya this must go on and grow.
These things only grow by the TH-cam algorithm feeding it to people who it thinks might enjoy it (to which our [dis]likes, subscribes & comments all contribute), and by direct word-of-mouth (so we should all share it with our friends/followers/bots on all the social media network platforms we care about & use regularly).
although, if he doesn't produce content this channel will probably not get popular, sadly.
@@MrFurriephillips yeah 👍
Awesome!
Suggestion: map the earth on it. Maybe have clouds and thunderstorms, and day and night.
Oh nice idea! A minecraft like world would be awesome on it :)
@@MichaelCannUk doom would be amazing too
@@AndroidFerret 6 player doom. Everyone gets their own screen
How much will you be selling them for, and how many can you make an hour? :D Seriously though man...this thing looks amazing! I am ALL LED! Love it!
Haha making a manafacturable cube has been attempted and unfortunately abandoned :( squarewave.io/
Innovation the chinese dont have
OP: "it took months and months of work"
comment: how many can you make an hour ? O.o
@@MichaelCannUk haha if you don't do it someone in China will knock it off eventually. Remember what happened to Bill Parker, the inventor of the plasma globe.
@@antiprismatic Innovation the Chinese haven't stolen.
OMG , that's fantastic. I built an 8x8x8 cube and I was so proud, now I'm sooo jealous. Great work Micheal.
That is absolutely amazing. Totally inspired to try and play around with some LED Screens now. Awesome stuff.
Brilliant! I look forward to your next project - a sphere! Not that you'll have any time for anything with the kid.
My congratulations, it's so beautiful.
It looks like a blast from the Future and very, very hard and strong work.
Megatron knows where you are and is coming for your energon cube.
Well done on completing the cube...I like the sprinkles and the prospect of showing 360 videos. People don't appreciate how much time it takes to build projects like this. I have built three 8x8x8 RGB cubes and each one took me months. Have a Merry Christmas and all the best for the New Year.
Cool for baby pics! Thanks for sharing the development process.
Amazing. Congrats! very interesting project.
Not quite working on the same project but definitely helpful and detailed in regards to resources. Thanks a bunch.
This project deserve 10million views atleast
Awww thanks mate
wow nice talking point on a desk. very well done!!!!
This is what i meant by when I tell people, youtube can make you or break you. Great Work, I need martix to refresh image at lease a 1000 time a seconds. about 150 image
Amazing build! Sharing on The Awesomer.
Cool :)
Incredible! I want to do a similar thing (with 16x16 led pannels and Arduino) but yours is phenomenal. Congratulations for your "cube child" and for your human child !! Sure, you'll be a great father
A brilliant art object you made there. Thumb up!
If you could find a way to have an object appear in the center of the cube, but always have it oriented the same way in space no matter the cube's rotation, I think that'd be pretty cool.
Imagine you're holding a glass cube, and inside that glass cube is a model of a goldfish. The goldfish's body never changes position, dorsal is always up, ventral is always down, anterior is always towards you, posterior is always away from you, and the lateral axis is always parallel to the ground/horizon. Yet no matter how you manipulate the cube, the central goldfish is never manipulated.
I know in a program, like Blender for example, you would just need six cameras, one for each face of the cube, then manipulate the object. I just don't know how you would translate that kind of operation to a program that can run on low-spec hardware and make it power efficient. As for manipulation of the object, inverse the gyroscope's input, that way the object inversely moves as the cube moves, producing the effect of the object not moving while the cube moves.
If there's a way to pull it off, it'd be a cool effect. Probably not the most practical effect for something like this, but a cool party trick nonetheless.
this is really amazing. in-depth documentaries like these are precious gems. looking forward to more projects like this
Impressive. I too have the "LED cube" on my todo list, because I've always been fascinated with the flowing particle demos on those LED panels.
I think it'd be a neat idea to render cupemaps of a scene in OpenGL and display them on the cubes faces. That way you could leverage accurate physics simulation to have the particles flow around the cubes faces (amongst other things).
Congrats on the baby!
Getting my head around the cube mapping math was hard. Would love to see someone else tackle it better than me :)
@@MichaelCannUk Well, I don't know about better, you've done a pretty good job already, but I'll eventually get my own LED cube done and try to improve on those that came before me.
And yeah, writing texture mapping from scratch for a 3D surface can be a bit daunting - but that's also the first step in setting up compatibility with a 3D engine, which in turn will enable so many more cool things. Like adding a small camera that peeks out of one edge to display a realtime cubemap of the environment on the LED panels.
Anyway, I've subscribed to you, in case you ever do decide to tinker some more and share the results.
There's just not enough words dude. It's just amazing! Thank you for making the video. I do wish however that you had done a cost and materials breakdown. Great job!
I'd like to see that cube portraying a borg ship!
Well that is something I didn't know I wanted till now. Really fucking sweet man.
This is incredible man! Keep up the fantastic work!
Congrats on the new addition to your family!
Hi Mike! The odds of me coming across this video! Looks awesome! 👏 Hope you are keeping well? Been a while!
Hi Mate :) ye it has been a while, im good thanks, keeping buy with Cubes and Babies as you can see. How are you?
Looks awesome! Nice Job! Congrats on the baby!
That is absolutely amazing. I'd love to own one of these. If you do ever start to sell these then please add me to your list of buyers.
Dude. You should develop this into a commercial product...I could see this being an AWESOME photo cube, or a lamp, or even just a really neat monitor...and having the app and everything too...thats would be AMAZING
Unfortunately this was already attempted and failed :( squarewave.io/
Excellent job! Regards from Curitiba, Brazil.

I keep coming back to this, it looks soooo cool
This is brilliant mate, seriously. Here's an idea. How about a rotating stand, just a thicker base with a motor inside? Gyroscope stand would be awesome for the particles
Plot twist: the most amazing thing that i learned from the video is the way you mounted your dremel at 6:36 . this is brilliant! I literally paused the video and made that setup myself and now I am writing this comment. If you are available on Instagram, please let me know, I'd like to tag you in my story.
Lol I wouldnt say this was a reccomended technique but it works if you need an extra pair of hands :P instagram.com/mikeysee/
@@MichaelCannUk thanks
Awesome, we need IMU inside it so that it can detect its own orientation and then display accordingly
I bet it would look pretty cool to view a scaled down skybox on that.
Miniature Deadmau5 set is nice
awesome looking cube.. thanks for sharing the work flow.. some time might attempt the same.. very Inspiring..
The way you’ve displayed the cube on that corner pedestal, reminded me of “The Allspark”
or the tesseract
Looks like something my childhood me would think of making
Killed it bro. Nice job! You really took it to the max!
Amazing work that you have done here... although, u need to get making one for me now 😜
I totally just seen this advertised on Insta a bought one from Hong Kong..... I think I just paid into the scam lol Love the cube man. Great job.
Absolutely beautiful and amazing work!
excellent job, made me want to go back to tinker on raspberry pi again.
Awesome project, I hope you come back to it and add those extra features. Cube mapped video would also be awesome.
It collects dust most beautifully
wireless is not going to charge that battery in short time. but u could use "metal contact point" like ceiling track light or switch or ipad and its magic keyboard. at those edge, leave left and right 2 metal point to contact the base for charging will do. u may need insulation sticker or paint behind those "charging contact point "
That's INCREDIBLE!!!!!!
Oh man you're from Perth too, I hell want to build one
Nicely done!
The Matrix code would look cool.
Looks good, nice work. Hope you and your new family are doing well.
Fantastic, I love the animations. You need a bettercamera some of the recordings were hazy, maybe a decoding issue. Anyway, I love the whole thing!!
Huge work my dude. Congrats on your little one
Amazing work man, congrats on the little one!
Looks cool, now it’s only about writing a soft that would make a 3d illusion of object in the center.
Ur channel is about to explode. Seems the TH-cam algorithm is finally picking up on you! :D
Great job.. I'd suggest adding 4 more accelerometers. Fix each one so it's centered and square with each box.
Hell yeah man, awesome project and a huge Congratulations to the little one!! Best wishes for the pregnancy and hope there are no complications! Next time you should use the triangle panels to make a Duodecahedron (12 sided object). I think even though there are more panels the particle flow would look much nicer if it could be done.
It looks amazing. You did a great job. Maybe an idea I really thought would be cool is to draw like a planet on the cube with the leds. Kind of Minecraft style or something. Great vid
Amazing dude! You're awesome!! I'd love to teach my son to build that kind of stuff
Well done from blity 😀😎🤙
I need this cube in my life, So awesome man.
Absolutely epic project mate. New subscriber
So beautiful! You did an awesome job! 🥰
so you rebuild the tesseract, nice!!
Make it look like the Tesseract!
that's fucking awesome project!
Looking forward to seeing your dodecahedron version! 😄
This is god tier levels of awesome, you totally smashed it this project, you earned another sub, great work!
This is brilliant, I made a led 8x8x8 cube as youngster with a diy pic programmable controller, this is whole new level. I would love to work together on building a 2.0 got a 3d
Ringer here for some prototyping and maybe do a bit Korean custom PCB design to optimise the internals. Il have a go a building this prototype in the next few months. Hope to see more development on that app it’s absolutely brilliant work you doing their.
Thanks for the kind words mate :) Would love to see your progress! Email me: mike.cann@gmail.com :)
The cube is ideal viewing for a group of people, a single person would only see 3 sides.
This is awesome, now I want one great. Don't really know what I would do with it.
It would be really cool if you could randomly draw a maze with a random start-and-stop point and use the accelerometer to navigate something around.
Vote it up, nice video clip, thank you for sharing it :)
that is absolutely amazing! you sould put this inside a hypercube!
This was my first thought aswell, it would shurely look awesome with that high of an resolution!
battery monitor telling how much juice left, and design such a way that its wirelessly charge.
and you got a ultimate product
sir I must say you did an amazing job! this is very cool !
really cool project - thanks for such full walkthrough of the design process... really informative👍🏻👍🏻
Great video and the cube looks awesome!
