I'm a beginner in arduino, but since I had an arduino uno, which had no wifi, I decided to try a serial approach. Related to #52
Changes
ws2812_controller_esp8266.ino
code inarduino_serial.ino
to use a buffer to store the serial data instead of udp data.led.py
. Just need to match yourserial port
andbaudrate
arduino_serial
toCONFIG.DEVICES
Problem
I think the serial communication is way too slow for the visualization to work properly. The strip just seemingly lights up randomly. I'm guessing this is because every udp packet can send a lot more information about more pixels at faster rate than serial?
However if someone can actually make this work, that would be cool. Just wanted to share my investigation @joeybab3 :)
