Bootloader!

I'm proud to say all our 3D LED Matrices and KIT's come with a bootloader! So when new features come out we can deploy the firmware updates without the need of a in-circuit programmer. This is also useful to the customer who wants to write his/her own firmware to learn some C-programming. Now your "home-brew" firmware can be uploaded without an issue.

8x8x8 Update

The 8x8x8 PCB's are on order and should be here Nov 4th... In the mean-time we will be getting a head start on the embedded software. The clear cases came in the other day and really gave some perspective on how impressive this Cube will be. Looking forward to this design!

Kits coming! 3x3x3 and 5x5x5

Kits are almost ready to be released for the 3x3x3 and 5x5x5! Just finishing documenting everything. The kits Atmega8 microcontroller will come pre-programmed with our embedded software so functionality with our PC software will work. This also allows instant functionality after the kits are assembled. The kits also have a programming (ISP) interface header to the Atmega8. This is for the more advanced user who owns an Atmel ISP programmer (MKII, STK500, Dragon etc...) to be able to develop there own embedded software for their own specific application.

Spectrum Analyser Update

Currently the Spectrum Analyser (Cube "move to music function") is being developed for all models...the 5x5x5 and 3x3x3 will require a PC for this to work. The 8x8x8 will be able to perform this function without a PC(if all goes well) but will also have the option to be run through the PC.
