Dot Matrix 8X8 Display
Available: 3/3
Description:
This display consists of 64 (8x8) dots, hence the name DotMatrix. This display gives you the option to connect in serial as many displays as you want and make a big horizontal one! You can control and light up whatever led, or led combinations you want on the matrix.
This display can be used in a lot of cool ways in your projects and also gives a retro look. Some examples are to make scrollable text, a simple pong game, any kind of game, display faces/emojis on your robot.
The MAX7219 chip makes it easier to control the dot matrix, by just using 3 digital pins of the Arduino board.
For making it easier to control the dot matrix, you need to download and install in your Arduino IDE the LedControl library.
