PiCube

PiCube is a 4x4x4 LED cube HAT for Raspberry Pi with 5V DC operating voltage. PiCube, a 64 monochromatic (Red, Blue, Green) LED device, is a fun way to learn programming. It is designed to perform incandescent operations with low energy consumptions, robust outlook, and easy installation that make people/kids/users learn the effects of LED lights with a different pattern of colours via the combination of software and hardware i.e. Raspberry Pi.

Installation

Python

  • Stack PiCube on Raspberry Pi 40 Pin GPIO header.
  • Open Git Bash Terminal and clone/download the repository by typing the below command in the terminal:
git clone https://github.com/sbcshop/PiCube.git
  • Your code will be downloaded to the '/home/pi' directory. Use the 'ls' command to check the list of directories and the 'cd' command to enter the directory.
cd PiCube
  • 'demo.py' is an example code for PiCube. Run test file and play with PiCube by running below python command.
python3 demo.py

It will run a different LED pattern on PiCube. You can also modify this code to put your own creativity.
