LED matrix on arduino

The previously discussed LED matrices have been mounted on a perspex stand, and instead of the mublock controller I have used a normal Arduino Diecimila. Since the software was originally written for WinAVR using some of the AVRlib functions, I haven’t made a full functioning Arduino sketch yet. Bitmap images give the start configuration for the game-of-life simulation, so you can immediatly play with ‘gliders’ or ‘lsww’ (see wikipedia on Conway) The bitmaps should go in the ‘data’ directory with the processing sketch.

Here’s the processing sketch:conwayprint32. A ‘clean’ sketch for displaying just 32*32 monochrome bitmaps: bitmapprint. The arduino sources are here: arduinoleddisplay.

These sources do not work with the normal Arduino programming environment, since I haven’t figured out completely how to do timing interrupts etc. I have used WinAVR. The sources compile with Make All.. Make Program will program the sources normally. (don’t forget to set the correct COM port in the makefile)
