[QUOTE="Skymaster, post: 124768, member: 36626"] Correct - Beaglebone is very similar to a RPI, except it has many more GPIO ports, allowing the software to drive more pixel outputs. You can also use an rPI to drive pixels, with an appropriate hat - those will only do two pixel outputs, so about 800 x 2 pixels (1600 total). There is also an option of using small boards, known as ESP32 and running software like WLED - however most of these are wifi, which is pretty unreliable for this kind of application. [/QUOTE]

The title of our introductory lighting manual contains a three digit number. What is that number? Clue: Display basics forum
