Carlitos' Project: RGB LED Mood Cube | RobotShop Community

This is the first in a series of electronic or robotic DIY projects. These projects are accompanied by instructional videos that will help you trough the many steps involved in completing the task at hand. For this first iteration, we are making an RGB LED Mood Cube.

Hey if you produce a 6 x 6 x 6 or 8 x 8 x 8 cube I’ll buy it…

This is an amazing product with a revolutionary frame structure. I’d purchase a 5^3 or 8^3 in a heartbeat! 4^3 makes lettering difficult imho

i bought a kit for my project of RB-Rbo-87 and i followed the instruction on how to assemble it. i used the code provided to upload to the project but it does not work what are my doing wrong? i chose for the board- Arduino Duemilanova and for the programmer- Arduino as ISP.
Everytime i upload it gives this error:

sketch_dec15a.ino:32:21: error: Rainbow.h: No such file or directory

sketch_dec15a:304: error: ‘open_line7’ was not declared in this scope

the software i used was Arduino 1.5.1r2.
i am given one week to finish this project and if you can’t help is their anyway i can purchase an assembled RGB LED mood light of this kind of project so save me time.

Please contact us via the RobotShop Support Center or RobotShop Forum.

i am having this error please help me tomorrow is my presentation i need the solution today.

Very nice project, I’m about to buy the kit.

what about a larger cube ? like 8x8x8 ?

is there a kit in preparation ?

Me encanta esta pagina, el contenido esta muy logrado, me gustaria saber si disponen de rss para estar pendiente de sus actualizaciones

@Aldo,

Please make sure you set the target platform to Arduino Duemilanove. Also make sure all of the sketch files are open at the same time in the Arduino IDE. Finally, you might want to redownload the code in order to make sure you have the latest version.

Hi, I am trying to program my rainbowduino with the plasma wave, but it does compile. It gives me this error:

core.a(main.cpp.o): In function main': /usr/share/arduino/hardware/arduino/cores/arduino/main.cpp:7: undefined reference to setup’
/usr/share/arduino/hardware/arduino/cores/arduino/main.cpp:10: undefined reference to `loop’

Can you help?

Regards
Aldo

Como se llaman las lineas de plastico donde se soldan los LEDS?

The manufacturer calls these “slim panels”. They are not sold separately.

nice product

Is this project based on the Adafruit NeoPixel LEDs?

@Joe No, these are standard RGB LEDs.
