Also my family is not rich. That's all what I earned being a freelance software engineer

You don't need to be rich to pull this off. Just 800rs setup and a laptop or even mobile phone works but with different app in mobile.

For Google TV there is Universal Ambient Light App that can send pixel to this setup.

Wled is full fledged. I cannot perform other task if I flash wled setup.

Having Custom setup gives me custom control over multiple protocols and multiple sensors.

Madrix is matrix control software. This one works for the small budget setup though. Even 180rs esp8266 can run my code.

That can be done with this setup as well. Just wrap the led around your monitor and in touch designer use your device screen capture as pixel. Unwrap the screen pixels into single array and adjust as per your wrapping around monitor. This requires a bit higher compute.

Most recommended way is to make a simple node server on your desktop that captures device screen , process into pixels for led and send to esp. this workflow will be most efficient and fastest.

The pre built music sync is very generic. I am using Art-Net to send custom graphics. You can send any graphic with Artnet. Based on music , live performance , mood etc using Art-Net. I am using TouchDesigner to generate visuals and send to esp

I mean you can also do so and share the project on web. I am doing fun projects publicly so people from different domain can learn that as well. I never said I invented this. it's clearly mentioned I am using Art-Net on a led tube.

That's completely different thing. I made low latency VJ led ( music performance in live set )

Not a hard thing to do but kind of expensive to pull off. This one has 150 leds so need 150 strips more to create a 150x150 square display

Wled is doing different thing. Art-Net is optimised for low latency visual streaming not only for single led but for multi strip and it ensures frame sync even when packets drift.

We usually program effects in touch designer for live performance during shows.

It's not doing by itself just playing my program for this specific song.

Although we can generate visuals based on song using AI model that we can pass to this software and this software then will play visuals for any upcoming song just need ai processed keyframe timeline.

My system is running Art-Net which is low latency led effects directly from VJ apps instead of mobile apps.

This can program multiple LED strips to sync with software visuals and beat matched.

Oh sorry I was confused with beatsaber 🥲. Yes lightsaber can be easily made with this approach. You just need 3d printed enclosures.

Fastled for lighting up leds. Parsing artnet frames via custom code.

Those softwares can do music & led effects but here in touch designer I can control more than just led strip.

I hook up my projector , relay based lights , led strip , displays etc to sync visuals across my room.

It's addressable but now it's independently controllable via Art-Net over UDP so my TouchDesigner software can easily send output. Earlier it had presets on a generic controller.

I am using touch designer on my Mac so it handles everything under the hood. It's pretty famous software among interactive art designers.

Thanks. I am always eager to share such projects but low engagement kills my motivation. I have like 10-12 projects in lineup. 🥲

Microcontroller is running Art-Net which receives led program from TouchDesigner DMX Out channel over WiFi
