5x5 Neopixel LED Matrix

thingiverse

This is an easy 5x5 panel for Neopixel LED strips. The inner Rectangle cutout press fits the Neopixel housing so that only a drop of hot-glue is needed to hold each pixel in place. Print is ~5h if you have a 0.3mm layer hight and a super slow first layer. Putting the Pixels in place ans preparing Pixels, wire and soldering is ~2h per Matrix. As a difusor you can use Printer Paper or similar so that you get a nice contrast between the pixels. There is also a STL for Connector/Spacer that can be used to put multiple panels together. I built a 2x2 panel. This is a 10x10 square that can easily display some retro animations, and Text. Linkt to Github Project for sourcecode will follow.
