The next iteration of the Luma node has been fabricated and assembled! The new node incorporates 3 10W RGBW LEDs, controlled with constant-current buck drivers and an ATTINY2313 microcontroller. Like all Luma nodes, up to 32 nodes can be daisy-chaned and controlled over RS485 with our open-source music synchronization software. Support for DMX is nearly complete, and will be ready for use after some additional testing!

Luma Node Development http://protofusion.org/wordpress/2013/02/luma-node-development/ http://protofusion.org/wordpress/2013/02/luma-node-development/#respond Thu, 21 Feb 2013 01:35:07 +0000 http://protofusion.org/wordpress/?p=1507 ]]> Luma 2.0 Prototype

Development has started on the next version of the Luma RS485 high-power RGB LED driver node. The new Luma node will include a constant-current buck LED driver, PCB-mount LED, temperature sensor, 16MHz crystal,  and many other new hardware features–all in the same footprint. On the software side, we plan on adding DMX support in addition to extra LED fade routines and improved PWM resolution. Check back in the coming months for more updates!
