Matrix Portal Stained Glass with WLED - DIY RGB Matrix Project

Adafruit Industries

Create a glowing stained glass window made from more than 2,000 LEDs that animate in hundreds of patterns and colors — all without writing any code. The project uses WLED, a free, open-source LED animation program that runs over WiFi and can be controlled from a phone or web browser. This guide uses the MoonModules v14.5.0 beta (“Small Step”) fork of WLED, which supports the Adafruit MatrixPortal S3. It also includes the Animartrix library, a collection of new 2D effects that turn your LED matrix into a dynamic field of color and motion. The design combines laser-cut or Cricut-cut opaque resist layers with black LED acrylic for diffusion, creating a stained glass effect that shifts and moves with light. Materials, files, and step-by-step instructions are available on the Adafruit Learning System.
