Just a heads up, this post is just a project showcase.If I get requests, maybe I'll post some procedures. Idk. yet.I was thinking of a way to post something on my <a href="https://www.youtube.com/HeathenHacks">Youtube Channel</a> for our country's independence day because I was feeling a little patriotic last week and lo and behold, I remembered that I have bought some 8x8 RGB LED matrix last year, just gathering dust (not really. it's in a box).So, I have decided to use them, I have also added the 8x24 matrix that I have daisychained last holiday season. <a href="https://create.arduino.cc/projecthub/Heathen_Hacks-v2/led-matrix-motion-sensor-door-display-arduino-holiday-438d6e?ref=user&ref_id=550502&offset=8">Click here to check it out.</a> To complete a set of 16x32 matrix.After daisychaining, I tried to use Glediator, only to be disappointed later on. I used 2 different Arduino UNOs, even a MEGA, used different USB ports available on my PC, installed a variation of x64 RXTX comms from different websites for the Java, but the darn thing just won't show the COM ports, so I rage quit and uninstalled everything related to it. lol.I also thought of just buying a whole 16x32 matrix to make my life easier. I also tried using the Adafruit Matrix Library, but it does not work on the ones that I have available here (I think) then I thought...&#34;Hmm. I just needed to think of a way to display a simple shape anyway. How hard could it be?&#34;So, I settled for a simpler, but more time consuming solution. I used the FastLED Library and applied color to it manually. YES, MANUALLY.PIXEL BY PIXEL.As you can probably see here. I even used a ruler. lol.<figure><img src=https://projects.arduinocontent.cc/ae005f2f-4eab-4ec6-be42-630c5a555da4.jpg /><figcaption> </figcaption></figure>******************************************************************************<h3 >Social Media Links To Follow (I mean, if you want to):</h3><a href="https://www.facebook.com/HeathenHacks">Facebook</a><a href="https://twitter.com/HeathenHacks">Twitter</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/heathenhacks/">Instagram</a>******************************************************************************<div class="se-component se-video-container __se__float-none" contenteditable="false" style="width: 100%;"><figure style="width: 100%; height: 56.25%; padding-bottom: 56.25%; margin: 0px;"><iframe frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/a4MB_aiiKmE" data-proportion="true" data-percentage="100%,56.25%" data-size="100%,56.25%" data-align="none" style="width: 100%; height: 100%;" data-index="0" data-file-size="0" data-origin="100%,56.25%"></iframe><figcaption contenteditable="true"><div>Video</div></figcaption></figure></div><figure><img src=https://projects.arduinocontent.cc/5a5c6c2c-f19c-4573-b39a-0225b3be4783.png /><figcaption>https://youtube.com/@HeathenHacks</figcaption></figure>
