Project Title:: Basic Aim

The project aims to create a 3D LED cube capable of displaying predefined animations. The cube will contain 64 LEDs arranged in an 4x4x4 structure. To light an individual LED, the positive terminal is connected to a pillar and the negative terminal is connected to a layer, requiring 20 IO pins total. Diffused LEDs are used instead of clear LEDs to avoid nearby LEDs appearing lit when they are intended to be off. Each LED is tested on a breadboard before integrating into the cube.

Project Title:

3D Led Cube

Basic Aim:
To create a 3D led cube which is capable of showing
pre-defined animations.

Theory:
A LED cube is like a LED screen, but it is special as it
is 3D. We can think it as of low-resolution display.
In normal displays it is normal to stack pixels closer to
each other in order for better resolution but LED cube
has its limits.

Procedure:
The LED cube has 64 LEDs. LED has two terminals one
positive and one negative. The positive end is connected to the
pillars of LED cube which acts as anode. The negative one is
connected to the layer. Hence, to switch on a particular LED we
have to give current to the corresponding pillar and ground the
layer. For an 4x4x4 LED cube we need 20 IO pins. In this
project we should use diffused LEDs as using clear LEDs might
pose some problems like if a particular clear LED is on then its
brightness may cause the nearby LEDs which are switched off
to appear switched on. So, we used diffused LEDs. Also, before
using them in cube we tested each LED by making small circuit
on breadboard.
