I saw this on reddit and will definitely have to make myself a version of this. Really nice job. Something that could possibly be improved upon is the contrast between 2 active pixels. I'm thinking an even lower layer height for the screen area, black filament for the grid, and white/transparent filament for the screen. Maybe this could make the colors pop a bit more? Overall, really like the implementation.
Thanks for the rec! Yeah that should be able to increase the contrast, I should get some more colors of filament to try it out.
The level of polish is super impressive. Having the apps do different things depending on the orientation is really creative. I need to spend more time on the software side of my projects so they look as good as this!
nie ma tu nic polskiego kolego
You're a legend for providing all the code, I love that Spotify display aesthetic.
Once I've got some spare time, I'm definitely making something like this
Where did the code go ? He removed the links and the repo is not on GitHub anymore.
Where's the code? Didn't see it linked in the description.
The quality here is incredible. Love your product design as well. I’ve been playing around with these matrix panels for a while. One of the best implementations I’ve seen. Would be cool to see what other uses you could come up with.
I usually don't extend my subscription list anymore and can't be bothered to write comments at all. Yet, here I am, taking time out of my morning routine to support you climbing mount algorithm.
Awesome craftsmanship and solid presentation.
after soo many years later. genuine project has been spotted here. thank you. its delightful to see all of your work.
So cool! Fantastic job, that case design is amazing. Will have to look into printing something similar.
I've been dreaming of making this project myself... Probably I'll never do it or not in a time soon.
So glad to see it alive and much better than I could ever make!
You basically tackled all the requirements in my head:
- Tasks
- Pomodoro
- Music
- No visible LEDs
- elegant design
Congratulations!!
This is amazing! You put everything together so well
5:28 Instead of using magnets, you could have made the display passively stable in both positions by slightly offsetting the center of rotation past the midline of the box, so that it would rotate eccentrically
In the vertical position it would want to fall away from the turning side, and turning it to the horizontal position would cross over the axis of rotation and put the center of mass further from the center.
Omg couple years ago I started building this, I got the display and pi and case ready but my expertise in coding was so bad that I gave up. I tried and search countless hours for a dashboard like that…. Ended up just with the demos from you mentioned. I will check out your repo. Really great work man.
I really like the effort you put into making it not just workable but pleasant to look at!
Super impressive! Design is well refined and it looks great.
This is some fantastic content and production!! Inspired to try making an LED display myself now!
that's so nice! I will make one as well in the future. can't code, so grateful you provided the Code.
keep the videos cumming! great first video👌
Wow this is awesome. So much attention to detail!
Amazing work! Thanks for sharing it 🙌
Finally found your video! Been looking for years finding proper tutorial and this is the answer, thank you
This is one of the best projects ive seen on youtube!
Job really well done! Great delivery and explanation - ill park this into my projects to do folder
Amazing project : ) One of the bests on CZcams I think, and you explain well
Super elegant design - great stuff!!
This is amazing, I love the minimalist design too
This is awesome! It's so well thought out and implemented! I love it!
I would love to start making stuff like this, myself. This makes me want to get a 3D printer and everything.
I love the design. You've done an amazing job
Beautiful work. Really great refinements to a cool project.
You are amazing. Awesome project, great and intelligent design and problem solving and high quality video and audio. You are very inspiring. Looking forward to being a new subscriber.
Brilliant project, and thanks a lot for sharing your design process and code. This is so aesthetically pleasing, I'll definitely be replicating your project once I can find an LED matrix panel. The only thing I'd change (and there really isn't a need for it) is using Wood filament instead of the black PETG. It stains really nicely, I just brush my eSun wood (feels like balsa) parts with stale instant coffee and spray a few coats of clear acrylic on top ;)
You should be so proud of this, the final product is super clean looking 🤤
Absolutely beautiful.
Great project! Thank you for sharing your work!
This is fantastic! Nice work!
Awesome work!
beautiful overall design buddy! keep it up
wish this was actually available to purchase, love the work keep it up!
Like the project. I just subscribed so I hope to see more projects like this. Good work!
really awesome work
Fantastic work.
I love the to do list functionality when I get time and money let's build it
Thanks for providing everything
Great Project for the Summer ^^ really great Job
This is awesome! I will make a version of this with acrylic diffuse board and pi pico.
Really well done! Knocked that out! 😎👍
Great Dashboard! A recommendation for the main screen when you tilt is to just show the notifications in order. Useful if you want to see past notifications.
Absolutely amazing
Excellent project! Your videography and speech were great. Can't wait to see what you do next.
Yesth i agree. Vitheograthy and sthpeetch are perthecth..
@@Z-Ack shut up
This is awesome!
This is amazing man
Awesome project, and I must say, you have a great taste in music 😄
Wow! This looks so sweet. a bit more advanced than I can handle but still a very sweet outcome.
I like the case, looks stylish.
Super cool project
This is AMAZING!!
late on watching this video apparently but came here to say, make more.....if you have the time. Awesome and inspires me to get on my projects.
Very simple, very elegant
Excelente proyecto, encantado de verlo, me animo a hacerlo.
Super cool!
Super cute and useful project
Really clever panel design! This is specifically why I clicked.
Cool video dude
Awesome project and awesome video. I will try to replicate it :) thanks for sharing!!!
This is so dope!
Thanks!
Really inspiring, thank you for sharing. Have subscribed 😊
I know it's not what you normally do but I would love a step-by-step tutorial on how to build it (more so on the Pi stuff and coding as I am still learning code)
I approve your notion tasks.
Awesome project. Subscribed for more.
this so cool 🔥🔥🔥
This is dope.
That's so cool
4:00 padoru! nice clean design
7:08 I think cylinders are usually used for db, if they use them for libraries too TIL
this is great.
Amazing. Been wanting to make one similar, however you took it to the next level. Bravo. Just sub ur chnl. Thanks for making this.
I have been looking for something like this!!, i have my 128X64 display. Will try this out ASAP
damn bro, this is severely underrated
Thats cool
Great work, i love that you've not simply made a screen with a button but pushing the possible with the tilt option. I wonder how hard it'd be to make the transition between modes cause the current displayed view 'fall' off the screen and fade in the new view.
Thanks! Animations are pretty tricky and kind of jank to do with how I wrote the code. It wouldn't be hard per say, but it would be tedious.
Congtratz about this work, I would be intersted in knowing the idle power consumption of the build (screen shutdown), and how to improve it.
so damn cool.
Why did the code disappear?
Cool, very cool men.
Case design is genius..
This is so incredibly cool! I wanna do this like, right now!😍
How much did the parts cost you in the end, if you dont mind me asking?🤔
I would like one of these to work with Home Assistant to display alerts or even add extra buttons to run service x3
I just saw this and it reminds me of my Wireless Announcement Board project that used a 32x32 LED matrix display. I have since then upgraded to three 128x64 displays. I moved up from an Arduino to a Raspberry Pi. Definitely worth it.
:)
Keep it up!
Edit:
For your build, did you consider getting a Pi Zero/Zero W for your application vs removing the USB ports?
I've used a Pi Zero for my 32x32 display, no problem. :)
i was crying watching him forcefully disassemble the pi. those things cost a lot these days
This is helping me a lot. I wanted to make something like this for a long time, thanks for posting :) One question, do rotary encoders usually have the push functionality or do I have to specifically look for it? Like, can I just get any rotary encoder from Aliexpress?
if possible an idea would be making the little bottom area a wireless charger that would be cool too
I guess I'm a bit late here, but you could try annealing the front panel. Although it would probably introduce a whole new issue of warping.
Really cool and super polished look! I noticed that you removed the GitHub repo. Is there a place where you have shared the CAD files, or even STL files? I have the same panel and would love to print the case!
Great video Allen! Thank you. I am working on a project where I need to push pc notifications to a raspberry pi which is connected with usb-c. do you know how to do that? and can't wait to see your next project :)
That looks pretty cool but it'd be interesting to know how expensive this whole build was because i kinda want to replicate it ^^
it would be cool if the home screen tilted was a timer like an hour glass and the dial sets the time
this reminds me of the meme were Dave constructs a homemade megaphone, using only some string, a squirrel, and a megaphone
Do you have to use a raspberry pi of that size though? Wouldn't a zero w have what it takes? You could access it and change things over wifi, its so much tinier so the display could be tinier for like a "mini" variant project, but does it have the power to maintain things like this?
Tetris in vertical mode ofc
this looks so cool! does anyone know what forums for these kinds of things are called? i want to start a project, but i've held off starting due to lack of knowledge on the wiring x')
Hmm, I’m thinking it’s probably possible to cram the code down into some efficiently written C on an ESP32 or an RP2040 (with a wireless peripheral). Pis are hard to come by these days.
Is this an item that you would consider producing more of and selling? Could see myself buying one.
Really cool project. Ive been wanting to do a raspberry pi alarm clock as my first raspberry pi project. Thank you for providing the code and cad files. Is there a parts list you could scrape together, maybe a wiring diagram as well?
I second this, parts list and wiring guide would be great.
Looks awesome!!! Do you have a link for the tilt switch? thank you
I bought it on Amazon, "Gikfun Metal Ball Tilt Switch Sensor for Arduino (Pack of 10pcs) EK1044"
For your warping issue, why didn't you include some ventilation holes on the top and bottom of the box to create a draft?
great video bro but i want to make it as a hobby and couldnt find any material, is there a reason why you havent shared the project materials?
