Based on nodeLHC - an ESP8266-based board with built-in USB->Serial Converter - this project implements WS2811/2812 Addressable LED controller. Full documentation about nodeLHC can be obtained here nodeLHC Project and on Github nodeLHC. This project was built using platform.io with esp8266-rtos-sdk.
This project receives an UDP (either MXP protocol and Art-Net) packet from user Wi-Fi AP and translate this to WS2811/WS2812 protocol format. Check Leandro's python script that captures Webcam and send an UDP (MXP)packet to a 10x10 WS2811 LED panel.

This file contains user specific configuration. Check the following example for this file:
#ifndef __USER_CONFIG_H__
#define __USER_CONFIG_H__
// User AP data
#define USER_SSID "YOUR_WIFI_SSID"
#define USER_PASS "YOUR_PASS"
// Configuration: UDP port and maximum number of LEDs in payload
#define MXP_UDP_PORT 2711
#define MXP_MAXLEN 300
// Uncomment the following line to set a static IP address for user Wi-Fi AP. Useful if you want to send UDP packet to an specific IP address (no broadcast).
//#define SET_STATIC_IP
#ifdef SET_STATIC_IP
#define USER_AP_IP_ADDRESS "192.168.1.10"
#define USER_AP_GATEWAY "192.168.1.1"
#define USER_AP_NETMASK "255.255.255.0"
#endif
#endifCheck mxp.h in include folder.
Art-Net is a UDP-based protocol used mainly for lighting controllers. Current implementation read data from Net: 0, Subnet: 0 and Universe: 0.
Check Glediator and Jinx! applications to generate awesome effects!
This project was built using Visual Studio Code IDE with platform.io. Add this folder in a separate workspace and build it using platform.io (https://docs.platformio.org/en/latest/ide/vscode.html#ide-vscode).
