Hi all,
Has anybody here ever tried to create a large display
using just LEDs, like a 640x480 display for eventual
use with a computer after control logic is added?
I know, skeptics will say that's too much soldering
to do, and then control logic wouldn't be compatible
with any existing video circuitry, but then again
individual LEDs nearly last forever and if multicolor LEDs
are used it could be pretty pleasant to look at.
The key would be finding a cheap source of LEDs,
since even a 640x480 display needs 307,200 of them
and most people these including myself prefer
at least 800x600 for 480,000 total.
Thanks.
