Description

A kind of LED light cube driving method of multi-directionally cascade
Technical field
The present invention relates to display technique field, the LED light cube driving method of specifically a kind of multi-directionally cascade.
Background technology
Light cube, a kind of by the stereo display array of stacked for multiple LED array composition, general light cube is all 8 LED according to the cubes of equidistantly arrangement by length, width and height.The light cube of a 8*8*8 is made up of 512 LED, and the light cube of a 16*16*16 is made up of 4096 LED.For the light cube of 8*8*8, simple 3D figure can be shown, and user can show various dynamic effect by it by oneself coding.For the light cube of 16*16*16, because LED number ratio 8*8*8 is many 8 times, abundanter dynamic three-dimensional picture can be shown, dynamic three-dimensional word can also be shown.This light cube can as zingy stereoscopic landscape lamp, may be used for display three-dimensional picture and be convenient to viewing, even can show real 3D animation.
But light at present on the market cube is mainly all 8*8*8 dot matrix, and be 16*16*16 dot matrix on a small quantity, these dot matrix all exist 2 deficiencies.
1, the content that such dot matrix quantity can show is very limited, can only show very simple animation, such as arrow, smiling face, word etc., cannot show abundanter pattern.
2, current light cube is can not cascade or can only unidirectional cascade, namely can only be cascaded into straight line towards a direction, cannot to other direction cascades.Therefore cannot splice a large light cube, also just cannot show the content of more horn of plenty.
For overcoming the above problems, need to propose a kind of can the LED light cube driving method of multi-direction cascade.A large light cube can be cascaded into like this towards four direction.The technology of this cascade is based on the many methods of attachment from machine of a main frame of the serial communications such as SPI.Each light cube be one from machine, by host computer control.
Through retrieval, we find that there is three patents and this patent has the common part of part, but have essential difference with this patent.Number of patent application is 201320235516.5, patent name for " a kind of extendible omnipotent LED template and consisting of " although the LED dot matrix described also can splice, but what its described is the structural design of the LED template that can expand, and this patent description is the driving method that multiple three-dimensional LED dot matrix carries out cascade, there is the difference of essence with this patent, what the driving method of this patent adopted is that serial communication mode communicates mutually, each light cube can be controlled by a main switchboard and be spliced into a large light cube, this large light cube can show more abundanter 3D animation effects, and patent " a kind of extendible omnipotent LED template and consisting of " describes is the expansion of configuration aspects, do not relate to driving method, the LED light cube of the participation cascade that this patent describes itself is three-dimensional solid LED dot matrix, cube cascade of multiple light can be spliced into a larger light cube, because this large light cube is also solid, inside is made up of very many LED, all animations that can show real three-dimensional, and the three-dimensional LED advertising lamp that patent " a kind of extendible omnipotent LED template and consisting of " describes builds a solid by six LED templates, be equivalent to cubical six surfaces, although structure is three-dimensional, but the content of six face displays is all the content of the plane of two dimension, obviously real 3-D effect is not had.Number of patent application is 201010566911.2, patent name is " a kind of three-dimensional LED display " and number of patent application is 201110218720.1, patent name for " stacked LED display and the three-dimensional display based on LED technology " although in describe all relate to three-dimensional LED dot matrix, and this patent description is the driving method that multiple three-dimensional LED dot matrix carries out cascade, those two patents are all the methods for designing describing single 3 D LED dot matrix, do not relate to the Cascading Methods that multiple three-dimensional LED dot matrix does not relate to multiple three-dimensional LED dot matrix yet, the difference of essence is had with this patent.Because they do not relate to the cascade of multiple light cube, they can not demonstrate more larger abundanter 3D animations.
