2 Retro Clocks with an ESP32 (Couldn't be simpler!)

Apologies for the abrupt ending, that was as much audio has I had recorded last week and my voice is a little funny as I'm recovering from Covid!

Just pretend to hear this "I hope you enjoyed the video and if you have any question please ask! Thanks for watching, Slan"

Really great, thank you. But could you forward the details which hardware you used, i mean which led matrix and Controller which would fit to eachother. Maybe you have Amazon or Alibaba or Aliexpress links ? Thank you very much in advance. ❤

Great vid! I've got some 38 pin ESP32s on the way. Reading through some of the comments and answers here and:
You mentioned in one of the comments that this board could power a 64x64 matrix without a power supply - is that as simple as soldering up the 5v and ground pins? From some research i've done (I'm a complete beginner mind you) you'd need to have a 5v 4a power supply to run the 64x64s at max brightness. Is it possible for the board to do this and power itself? and... how can that be figured out? Thanks!

Excellent project, I have the 64 x 64 displays just waiting for a purpose, and I just ordered the Trinitys. Thanks!

Hi Brian, hope you’re still reading and replying to comments here. I have an issue with wiring. My 64x64 doesn’t have a D pin and you only show the one pinout example. I’m working with just jumper wires from the hub75 to my esp32. I got everything running on your walkthrough but I have a gap on the panel. Clearly wiring issues. Could you help?

I’m trying to use a hologram fan as an odometer for my motorbike, I need a way to encode and render the sensor readings to a video and then to input video of the hologram, so far I’ve considered using esp32, is it capable of taking odometer sensor reading and rendering two block numerals that may rotate slightly I.e.isosceles scaling to create a depth of field effect amongst the invisible display?

is there a ESP8266 version code for mario clock ?

Our factory produces these LED modules you are using a p3 192*96mm size LED module

is there a way to use wled?

Some positivive ctritisisim, It's a shame you mention nothing about anoy of the pridces of the parts..
(Which I would like to know 😊

Is it possible to do video or screen mirroring with this project

Could you tell me if it would be possible to make a news, weather ticker ? One you could enter your api key with a cell phone to send news and weather to your display.

Excellent Tutorial man! Very much looking forward to getting this on the go!
Many thanks

Hello. I tried the Mario clock project and the clock is two hours behind. For example I entered US/Hawaii as my time zone and saw the incorrect time. I reinstalled the code and tried Pacific/Hawaii and got the same 2 hour delay. Does anyone know what could be wrong? Thanks!

Hey, awesome Video! Sadly my Matrix only shows 2 rows of 16 leds (The top 16 and 3rd row of 16 leds) How do i fix this?

nice

excellent work. How can I connect 4 to p10 rgb led matrices to obtain a 64x32 screen. the esp32 module handle lad 4 screens

A fatal error occurred: Failed to connect to ESP32: Timed out waiting for packet header. Noob in need of help...

Amazing! Brian I don't have a PC. Can I use an IPAD to program ESP32 software?

any idea of why my display has only 2 rows of 16 leds illuminated if i tested the continuity of all data lines ? I am using an esp32 and jumper wires

can the trinity be used if I have two 64x32 board stacked on top of each other forming a 64x64 matrix and I want to display animated gifs on?

Thanks! Can't wait to get all the parts and star to build this!

great project. i habe a esp32 dev 4. should also work, eh? how many 64x32 modules can you drive with esp32 with a acceptable frame rate? what lib do you use t odrive the module? smartMatrix?

Can't connect to the ESO via WiFi - Password is incorrect 'clock123' any ideas?

Amazing project! any chances of have one for a 32x8 led?

Hi! Im currently using the Tetris clock but the constant brightness is bothering me, especially at nighttime. Are there any plans to integrate a brightness setting?

Very well made and designed I think. Should the LDR be working with the web flash version? I don't think it does?

hello, everything works great for me, thank you, but I still have one question: how do I get back into the wlan configuration if I have already connected the ESP32 to another wlan?? via IP address it no longer works. is there a possibility??? thanks

Hi sir,i got a problem
The timezone doesn't match my region, how do I change it?

Creative video,thanks:)

Brilliant video - I've just got one of the 64x64 matrix from your links but it didn't come with any pin outs/documentation - where did you find pinout info for the HUB75E connector?

Built this with your ESP32-Trinity and works great. I remember seeing somewhere that there is the ability to use an ambient light sensor to automatically dim the display. However, I can't find this again. Could you elaborate on this?

Can we use a P1 board instead of the p3?

How would I go about using the esp32 as a simple wifi antenna for my laptop? for example if my wifi card inside was to fail, could I use the esp32 to connect and surf?

Hi Brian, is there a limit on the amount of panels that can be used i.e. could I use 4 panels in a square to make an extra large Mario clock? If so, apart from 3 extra panels, what other components would i need?

Thank you

Ask me how I know! 🤣 for those of you who have not put 12V into a panel (yet 😉), have not seen the lovely display of the transistors glowing and burning out 🤣

I love the tetris clock design. What a great idea

Is it possible to make the Mario clock with 2 panels of 32*64 in stead of 1 panel of 64*64?

To be honest, neopixes matrix look much better than these displays - somehow the lighting is stronger, as well as the colors. (Of course neopixel uses much more power, but still)
These displays would be a good solution if there were many of them, enough to form a screen of at least 200x200 pixels.

I love Mario clock... i made one. Thanks!!!
Marc.

doesn't your trinity have a voltage regulator?

Where do I get hat panel?

Hi! Where can I find that kind of matrix?

Great job.

Another awesome video Brian. Hope you get over your covid real soon. Just ordered the Trinity, had to use the China link, all others seem to be out of stock, it'll be well worth the wait though 👍
