Hi,
My main goal is to be able to live-stream a video to approximately 1000 bright LEDs.
I have individual 3W RGB LEDs that I want to be able to play movies on (50x20=1000 LEDs).
I have been reading the OctoWS2811 and Teensy guides, but don't have much EE experience, so I'm not sure exactly what parts I need. I plan to buy the WS2811 IC chips and create LED strips by wiring 20 sets of 50 LEDs+WS2811 units in parallel. I'll control the strips with the Teensy and supply power to the LEDs separately through separate power supplies.
Is this plan feasible, or am I missing anything important? Thanks for reading and for any suggestions.
