rgb-matrix-visualizer/pi.py

#!/usr/bin/env python3

# Uses the Python bindings for the Raspberry Pi RGB LED Matrix library:
# https://github.com/hzeller/rpi-rgb-led-matrix
#
# And the pillow Python Imaging Library:
# https://github.com/python-pillow/Pillow
#
# For the wiring of multiple panels, check out:
# https://github.com/hzeller/rpi-rgb-led-matrix/blob/master/wiring.md#chains
#
# Basically each chain only stretches in the X-direction.
# For the Y-direction, multiple parallel chains are used.
# Up to 3 are theoretically possible with the Pi, but my hardware only supports
# one.
#
# The physical layout of the chained panels can be different of course.
# For four panels, you could do 64x64 or 32x128.
# But this PiMatrix object will always present it as 128x32,
# chained in the X-direction.
#
# Use the objects from mapper.py to adjust this.
