The Pixblasters MS1 Video LED Controller enables DIY enthusiasts and signage professionals, even those with minimal technical skills, to turn a bunch of addressable RGB LED strips into immense video LED displays. It supports new levels of professional-grade digital signage that cannot be attained by standard LED modules. The LED strips can be curved and glued to different surfaces to form giant, economically viable and remotely controlled video installations that may span entire buildings. The controller connects as an ordinary monitor to any computer and any operating system, and displays any visual content on the attached LEDs.
VIDI magazine’s e-novation award is named “Tesla’s Egg” after the famous experiment conducted by Nikola Tesla. At the World Exposition in Chicago in 1893 Tesla conducted an experiment with a metal egg demonstrating one of the effects of the rotating magnetic field in a popular way by making the metal egg stand on its top as a result of it rotation around its axis.
