RGB MATRIX INTEGRATION IN TO ARCADE MACHINE EMULATOR CABINET 

 

WHAT IS THIS ALL ABOUT:

The project consists of the interfacing & customized Integration of an Adafruit  RGB LED Matrix to a Raspberry Pi3B+  displaying Emulator & Game specific information, running a preconfigured copy of Hyperpie (Arcade machine emulation) software. (SEE VIDEO BELOW)

 

Future enhancements "May" eventually include the addition of a USB controlled LCD screen to provide further particular game play information.
