PixelCurtain consists of 144 small circuit boards, each containing a single pixel. Those pixel boards are attached to a piece of cloth to form a display 18 pixels wide and 8 pixels in height. To diffuse the light sent out by the LEDs, there is a foil about 7 cm in front of the cloth. | |||

The pixel boards are then connected to chains of 16 or 64 pixels by connecting the data output of a pixel to the data input of the next pixel and forwarding the power supply wires.

PixelCurtain consists of 144 small circuit boards, each containing a single pixel. Those pixel boards are attached to a piece of cloth to form a display 18 pixels wide and 8 pixels in height. To diffuse the light sent out by the LEDs, there is a foil about 7 cm in front of the cloth.
Every pixel circuit board contains a RGB led, a microcontroller and a small switching power supply converting the 48V supply voltage to the 5V needed to operate the microcontroller and the LED.
