Title: goDMD Clock or Timetravel Machine to the 80's
Post by: wolfsoft on March 23, 2017, 11:15:21 am

Hi Folks,
I got a new toy some weeks ago. Its called goDMD. It's a RGB Panel DMD like Clock normaly used for playing Pinball Animations and showing Time, Date, Temp, Humanity.

I done some new Animations from the Videogame World and had a lot of fun with it.

Look here my Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-l7VJbuRis&lc=z12mvjnapqbqhryza04cetojsmz0cx4hod4 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-l7VJbuRis&lc=z12mvjnapqbqhryza04cetojsmz0cx4hod4)

That's pretty cool, but I think it should always display the time somewhere on that display during the animations.

seems like it's just being used as a "flipbook" of sorts with a series of jpg's or bitmaps.

some creative programming to edit the files on the fly could include the feature with what you seek.
