So you are doing 2,000,000 "baud" over UDP and get 100Hz framerate to 144 pixels. Do I have that straight?

What can you send via your MQTT, pixel data? Or home grown "commands" or what.

Cheers,
John

The UDP stuff works, it is just not particularly reliable as it seems to lock out the TCP connections..

Ada light works over serial, that is the 2,000,000 baud stuff.

MQTT just controls it. turns it on, changes settings... I can PM you some binaries if you want to try it out

@jonathanb02 I took a look at your app, but just online, I'm an iPhone user so can't use it.

I'd be interested in implementing something like that though? What are your thoughts on sharing your wax 'algorithm' ?

A,

It's a free open source code example I found on the web. I'm sure you can find it fairly easily if you do a quick google search.
