Want to build the ultimate Custom DMD Display DIY smart display for your games room? Without breaking the bank? In this video, I show you how to easily build your own retro LED matrix clock powered by a Raspberry Pi.
Featuring Train Departures Board, Flight Tracker, International Space Station Positioning, Live Rocket Launches and a lot more all controlled from an easy to use web dashboard.
Key functionalities include: Crystal-clear clock and date displays, live train times tracking, a live YouTube subscriber count, and custom animated GIF playback using a built-in GIF editor.
New enhancements include: A world clock for multiple time zones, a live flight radar tracking aircraft overhead, a real-time countdown for rocket launches worldwide, and an International Space Station tracker that notifies you when the ISS is passing overhead. Plus, a tide times widget perfect for sailing, surfing or walking the dog on the beach!
