Sample full-color scrolling LED display driver

This repository contains a small demo program showing how to use a Yocto-Color-V2 with eight daisy-chained 8x8 Neopixel panels to make a 64x8 full color scrolling LED display.

The interesting part of the code can be found in scrolling-led-display.py. Using the same font file Small.yfm that we use in the Yocto-MiniDisplay, this sample Python software includes:

• a function that takes as input a character string and draws it in a RGB bitmap using a specified color
• a fonction that shows a selected section of the RGB bitmap to the LED display

By sliding progressively the selected section from left to right, we give the impression that the text is moving from right to left on the display:

For convenience, we have also included in this directory the two python files from Yoctopuce API that are required to drive the Yocto-Color-V2, as well as the architecture-specific DLLs.
