Arduino IKEA Coffee table hack – Animation

Displaying a 64x64 pixel animation exported from a GIF Animation with a custom python script.

UPDATE: After some optimization in the animation loading, the set pixel functions and the display refresh function the Arduino is able to display about 50 frames per second when displaying a 96x64 monocolor animation from flash memory.

    Have you thought about loading images from SD card? This guy has made SD work with Arduino http://www.instructables.com/id/Digital-Window-Sticker-Arduino-Controlled/

    The SD card uses the SPI interface so you might run out of Digital IO pins. But it might work with a Arduino Mega…

    I have to wait for a bigger AVR to get more things done. The Arduino is at it’s i/o pin limit right now :)
