Here we try to push E1.31 UDP data received wirelessly via ESP8266 and pushed to NeoPixel in the fastest way possible.
Other projects with E1.31 support:
I also demonstrate how to setup and use Jinx!, ledfx and xLights
Minimalistic Async code around Async E131 for ESP8266/ESP32
• Completely Async
• Web-interface to set starting universe, unicast/umulticast, total number of universes
• WiFiManager Captive Portal to get WiFi credentials (Compile with -DUSE_EADNS
for ESP8266)
• Subscribes to E131 multicast
• Connect RX/GPIO3 to DIN of NeoPixel strip, and any PIN (<GPIO32) specified for ESP32
• Upload included firmware.bin at http://<IP_ADDRESS>/update for ESP8266, compile your own for ESP32
• Included relavent lines for APA102/Dotstar LED strip: Comment //#define USE_NEOPIXELS xxx
and uncomment #define USE_DOTSTAR
• ESP8266 Hardware SPI: Uses GPIO14(SCK) for CLOCK and GPIO13(MOSI) for DATA
• ESP32 Hardware SPI: Uses GPIO18(SCK) for CLOCK and GPIO23(MOSI) for DATA
Libraries Needed
platformio.ini is included, use PlatformIO and it will take care of installing the following libraries.
