    Hi Monte, This has to be the BEST video I have ever seen on Element 14. Excellent job, clear explanation, good video annotation and great use of the PSOC. You always amaze me with your skill and craftsmanship…

    Having watched your video I wish I was back in Australia. I liked your use of the PSoC 4. I have tried using PSoC 3 in the recent past but without too much success, but I did use the original PSoC I in it's very early days when it plugged into the parallel port of a PC to run the programmer. We had to stop using them in the end as we moved to a network of PCs and they shut out the hardware parallel ports for security reasons.

    Brilliant video presentation!  Impressive programming of the PSoC.  I have seen a few different programming methods for these LED's, but this has to be the best I have seen!

    Hey Monte,

    I finally found the time to sit down and watch your video. Looks great, and I really like your clever approach in controlling the adressable LEDs. It's a good way to show that it's not always necessary to throw in heaps and heaps of resources! Thanks for providing this content!

    The LED cube in the end is mesmerizing.... Throw in an accelerometer and you might get some nice effects when tilting it while the same color stays 'down'....
