Customizable LED Matrix Diffuser

Last crawled date: 4 years, 2 months ago

After making/tweaking a few of these by hand, I decided to make a customizer so that you can create whatever fits your panel.
Since many panels are larger than most print-beds, I took the same approach as some others and planned for use as squares but give you the option of customizing it with 3 or 4 borders to join them seamlessly.
All you need to do is:
Pick your panel size (P2, P2.5, P3, P4, P5, P6)
Select how many LEDs per row (8,16,32,64,128) (square dimensions- see notes below)
Pick your desired wall height (3mm works well)
Wall Width (Customize this based on the size of your array and your 3D printer)
Borders (3 or 4) (See below)
For wide panels (e.g. 32x16, 64x32, etc.), print one with 4 borders and 1 with 3 borders.
For larger arrays, use 3 borders for all panels in a square array. For square panel configurations, 3 borders for all. If you're advanced enough to do something different than that, then you can figure the border thing out for yourself.
I'm not marking it as a work in progress because it customized well in OpenSCAD, but please let me know if you experience any issues so I can resolve them. (I know the LEDs per Row isn't displaying properly. I'll fix it when there is something else to fix.)
