ALLNET BrickRknowledge LED Addressable 8x8 RGB Matrix

The ALLNET BrickRknowledge LED Addressable 8x8 RGB Matrix is a versatile, individually addressable LED module designed for educational, prototyping, and IoT projects. Compatible with the ALLNET BrickRknowledge system, Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and ESP32/ESP8266, this matrix features 64 RGB LEDs with 24-bit color depth, controlled via the WS2812B protocol. Its brick-compatible mounting (e.g., LEGO Technic pin holes) allows easy integration into custom builds and visual displays.

Advantages

Individually addressable LEDs enable dynamic patterns and animations. The 5V DC operation and 3-pin interface simplify wiring. With a pixel pitch of approximately 5.5 mm, the matrix provides clear, vibrant visuals. The integrated controller per LED reduces external component requirements.
