DIY Ping Pong LED Wall v2.0
This version of my legendary Ping Pong LED Wall is 2x1,5m in size and consists of 1200 RGB LEDs. The build is done from aluminium using a DIY hole punch. This version is driven by an ESP32 and supports even camera streaming from an ESP32Cam or media streaming from the PC. More on that topic follows in a future update.

At this point I apologize to anyone upset or offended by the effect reminiscent of the rising sun flag. I was notified about the possibility that that would be associated with regimes in Asian countries. It wasn't my intention and it shouldn't even be associated with any military flag. I'm a pacifist and would alter it if I was aware of this before. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rising_Sun_Flag

Pretty nice! You are so convinced from yourself. And sharing that makes other people try out something similar! Thanks for that 😁
This was the inspiration I needed to see for a project! Thank you!
Woah that's really cool. Ingenius to use the ping pong balls, really adds a cool effect. Imagine doing a full wall or ceiling like this. Even just white LEDs for general lighting would look really cool.
This is amazing. I ended up building the smaller 15x20 one from the last video this summer and it was so satisfying to see it work.

Hi, I'm also trying to build 15x20, do you Wall work with the camera images? What changes did you make in the code?
That’s even more wicked than I expected it to be!!! Awesome work mate!
Seeing that LED Wall live was astonishing. Well done bitluni :)
Awesome build! Very well done and it looks amazing balls.
You're like a mad scientist in his lab creating monsters I love it ....keep up the good work !
The pure joy when every work is done. (I know this is 2yrs ago but why would i skip this excellent creation?)
Impresionante! Muy bueno, como siempre! Da gusto verte trabajar, el apaño de la goma simplemente genial. Deseando ver más. Gracias!!!!
Just amazing Bitluni!!! Amazing work!!!!

This is awesome. I want one of these to hang outside my house for Xmas.
That punch is a nice bit of kit even if it looks a bit Heath Robinson... You said it took 1 Hour... 300 in 1 Hour that's 5 a minute or 1 every 12 seconds...pretty good going if you ask me.
I love the happiness and enthusiasm in your videos, the joy after each successful step is contagious 🙂
So cool project. I absolutely love it. Great video !!!!
Superb work, what can I say but WOW!
Love your enthusiasm! :) Thanks for the video
Small thing, but really love using lever nuts as you did here! Nicely done.
I just found your channel. I love your personality and your projects!! :)
I respect your patience, hats off 👌
Bravo, et quelle patience pour ce magnifique travail.
Amazing work as usual. I absolutely love the final result. 🤩 Might I suggest you switch from the ESP32 to a (ARM based) teensy since you can use this library called OctoWS2811 which can drive 8 strips on parallel. It can potential manage more than 200FPS in your 1200 LED frame. You will lose WiFi capabilities but that is easily added by putting a raspberry pi, which can get bitmaps over WiFi/Eth/local-storage and send bitmaps over USB to the teensy (at USB full-speed rate ~12Mbps). That library can even do multi-processor synchronization... I am actually finishing up the same thing right now but I mine is much smaller and hexagonal (at 331 LEDs). 😋
Excellent. Love your work.
Very very cool. And you wrote you own library for the ESP32 - even better :)
This inspires me to learn aluminum tig welding even more! :)
the next a cnc for the holes of the iron plates, congratulations... you are the best
The best content on youtube. esp32 camera for a led wall is awesome. 8:22 👍

Again your excitement when finishing the holes was so cute & your invention was so funny! Did you get an arm workout lol💪
Dude, that’s frickin awesome...!!!
Nice build - Well done

awsome build

That's an insane amount of work! For extra masochism, you could turn the ping pong balls into cubes with some heat and pressure or vacuum - then the pixels will be continuous!

love the amount of wohoos and hahas on this video :D
lol I saw the missed one when you were stamping, figured you'd left it on purpose especially once it showed up painted! oops! Very cool project, going to have to go back and look at the others you did in the past now.
AvE is on your welding skills chart. Thats great. ^_^
Great project, subbed! :)
FANTASTIC!
if you know someone who works in the engineering industry that uses a cnc turret punch it's always a bonus. When welding alloy always tac at the corners to avoid them key holeing
awesome dude !!!
Wow! Very Good.
Dude, awesome.
Its amazing!
incredible!!!
You look so happy :))

I'm pleased to know that you are laughing during all the time you spend in your lab.

Nice finally online :)

This is Huge! WOOOW
thats amazing, now imagine if that hole you missed you discovered way later lol
Well, this is amazing. Do you have a blog where I can see the schematics and details? Can I make it bigger?
Here's so cute 😍
A huge project, Luni! You might want to consider using an FPGA for your next LED matrix. It's a bit pain in the butt getting all 1200 leds wired but you will have literally zero lag while playing youtube on it.
Full HD next! The size of a house! Awesome work.

one of the guests at MakerFaire was talking to me about making a version with 800 x 600 or at least 640 x 480 LEDs. I've put on my best "bitch please" face.. you'd need a 144kW power supply for that (granted in full white all pixels). You've probably said that as a joke but it just reminded me of that guy. He had this "I can easily whip that up" smug mode on.. meh.
@ClokworkGremlin

At 640x480, It would also be at least 19.2m (64 feet) tall, and have to be driven in 148 concurrent segments to maintain a frame rate of 24 frames/second (the max rate of the LEDs he's using allows about 50,000 pixel updates per second)
Mesmerizing!!!!
Oh noes, there's a dead pixel! D: Amazing job though. Well done! :D
That's cool!
You are AWSOME !
Awesome as always. It always surprises me how you're so happy and upbeat about everything you do, how do you achieve it?

Sometimes you have more time available than money (and no doubt the pre-punched panels are more expensive). Plus, it's more of a sense of accomplishment to have done as much as possible yourself.

@@wreckless_-jl6uu No doubt - it was just a thought for others that might want to construct a panel using another method. The pre-made stuff has the added quality of being very precise in the hole placement that might help in better alignment of the pongs. And you can also get it in material other than metal that would be cheaper than making it with metal and hand punched - plastics for instance. You could also use peg-board. You might have a little hole in-between the main fixture points, but it would be cheap and fast. 4X8 (foot) peg-board runs about $15 a sheet USD at the local hardware. Cheers.
One of the LEDs green channel seems to be failing at 8:37 in the upper left-ish corner, that's unfortunate. Sometimes the LEDs aren't soldered to the chip so well under the silicone...
3:04 I think in the meantime Wintergatan arrived above the infelxion point xD Really great welding footage from you btw!
