Hey Jim.
Basically the “Here is the program.” is the editor program that runs on your computer. You will need to download and install Processing. Go here to get it: http://processing.org/download/ Just click the link in the middle that says, “Windows” which will download the Processing ZIP file. Unzip that and go to the folder that you unzipped it into. Open the “processing.exe” program. Then click the “File” menu then “Open” and select the “LED_Cube_Editor.pde” file from the where you unzipped the “LED_Cube_Editor.zip” earlier and click “Open.” Click the Button on the toolbar that looks like an arrow which should start the editor. By the way, Processing is the programming language that the editor is written in.

I hope this helps you.
-Tim

Hi again, Tim!
I am running your program now on a windows machine, but I don’t understand how to get the code to run on my Arduino. I can copy the code, but I don’t understand how to get it compiled as an Arduino sketch. Can you give me detailed instructions here? I really like the idea, and you obviously know gobs about this… but a noob I is… tusen tack ! (swedish…)

Hi Tim! I have crashed my computer 3 times trying to run the pde in processing… Ubuntu 10.04 can’t do it? or is it me?? The processing window is working, but the LED programming sketch just restarts my comp.

Thanks for the help!
Jim

[...] LED Cube Editor | Tim’s Mind Then you copy the code into the firmware and upload the program to the Arduino. [...]

Unfortunately I do not have time to add that feature, but the source code is posted at the end of the post in the zip file and your are welcome to add that feature. Please post a link here to your modified version to share with others. The source file is called “LED_Cube_Editor.pde” and you can go to http://www.processing.org to learn about how to program in Processing.

Hi,
This is an awesome program! Could you possibly make it have the option to be compatable with a 4x4x4 LED cube?
Thanks!

Hi Tim,

I started writing a response, but it ended up being long enough that I thought I’d make a blog post of it :)

Here it is: http://scanlime.org/2011/02/perler-bead-robot-ideas/

Thanks again!
