@eugeniusz7144 Місяць тому
This looks great! Thanks for the video! I would recommend one thing though to simplify transfer from Wokwi to real board - You can just use so called flags - e.g. define a constant smth like "is_simulation" and if it is present - not perform the thinga which are relevant to real board. Thus when You ttansfer code You can not bother about uncommenting things and just comment out just one line of defining a constant - or switch it from false to true - easy and You'll not forget accidentally what is missing - less room for error. Just a tiny useful thing - I always use it for different purposes and find it extremely useful. Just an idea :)
@upir_upir 28 днів тому
Thank you for your suggestion, I was thinking about the same thing - i.e., putting some preprocessor directives like #ifndef or #if, but decided not to because the code is not that complicated, and having some extra NeoPixels does not slow it down that much. However, the main reason was the fact that there is not way how to automatically tell in the code if the code is running inside simulation on WOKWI or on the real Arduino. As I understand it, this is intentional, but it would be helpful in this case.

Having a display that displays your current gear is great, but FFS, put it where you don't have to look away from the road when looking at it! Safety first! N.B. Before I got my Yaris hybrid (with HUD), I drove manual for 25 years, and NEVER looked at the shifter when changing gears. Muscle memory will teach you which gear you're in very fast anyway.

I've been following your work and noticed we're exploring similar projects in electronics. I just got a Seeed 6x10 RGB matrix that pairs with Seeed Xiao boards like RP2040 and ESP32. Setting it up was straightforward, costing only £10 for both the matrix and the Xiao board. the dimensions of the board are 22x18mm. and lots of pins are free to be extended through. I tried your method with Photopea for image conversions, but ended up using a GPT model to convert the pattern table into an RGB 0x000000 format, which turned out perfectly! Seeing as we’re both navigating similar stages in our electronic ventures, I thought it might be beneficial to exchange ideas and tips. If you’re open to it, perhaps we could share emails?
