While troubleshooting some problems with my LED Mapper web tool, I've added what I feel are some pretty useful new features.
Common problems with layout inputs are now reported, like non-zero start index, non-continuous sequences & duplicate indices.
You can now view numbers and/or dots in the preview & you can choose between index, X, Y, angle or radius, which can help visualize the map.
Try it here & let me know if you have any suggestions: https://jasoncoon.github.io/led-mapper

Also, behold Hypno-Sheep!

@jasoncoon @yelof I need to know more about hypno-sheep and if a physical version exists.
Show threadJohnSep 23, 2023

@alpenglow @jasoncoon a physical build is in progress! I'm making it for the Wooly Fair, a DIY arts carnival in Providence, Rhode Island. Word is that it's going to be placed near the music stage, so will have some nice audio-reactive patterns going 🎶

I've completed the LED panel, just need to work through my final mappings of the sheep, and also to build a frame that it will be hung from.

@alpenglow @jasoncoon @ferrix The Hypno-Sheep shined brightly all night next to the music stage, and was enjoyed by many fairgoers! https://www.youtube.com/shorts/QRggEdNqCsI

@yelof @jasoncoon @ferrix That is amazing! What I wouldn’t give to have Hypno-Sheep at Lambtown Festival this weekend!

@alpenglow @jasoncoon @ferrix thank you so much! ✨ I wish I could ship it 🐑

@yelof @jasoncoon @ferrix Are you cool with others making hypno-sheep? I’m not sure I would do one as big, but I’d love to try a small one.
Show threadJohnOct 4, 2023
@alpenglow @jasoncoon @ferrix I'd be thrilled if that happened! I made a smaller version sheep at 113 pixels, mapped with Jason's excellent tool, for a physical LED layout that included the gaps in the sheep head. You're welcome to use that sheet if it fits with what you're envisioning for your sheep 🐏
