DataPix: a programmable LED matrix ticker
DataPix turns JSON API data, pixel art, animations, and static text into custom views on a 64×32 ESP32 LED panel.
Field notes
DataPix separates display design from firmware coding: its interface lets users map JSON fields onto a 64×32 grid, then combine those values with text, sprites, effects, and animations. The page lists up to 30 rotating views, eight custom API sources, six elements per view, and imports for images and GIFs. Its browser demo uses simulated data, while the described physical unit runs the interface over a local network on an ESP32-S3 with 16 MB of flash and 8 MB of PSRAM.
