ESP32-C6 LED Matrix Controller

A Swift-based LED matrix controller for ESP32-C6, featuring multiple stunning animation effects. This project demonstrates the power of Swift in embedded systems development.

✨ Features

• 🎨 Multiple animation effects:
  • Rainbow wave effect with smooth color transitions
  • Matrix rain effect (Matrix-style)
  • Spiral pattern with color cycling
• ⚡ Smooth animation transitions
• 🛠️ Modern Swift codebase
• 📱 10x6 LED matrix support

🛠️ Hardware Requirements

• Seeed XIAO ESP32C6 board
• WS2812B LED strip (60 LEDs)
• 5V power supply
• Data wire (connected to GPIO0)

🚀 Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Swift 6.1 or later
• ESP-IDF (Espressif IoT Development Framework)

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/CmST0us/swift-embedded-xiao-esp32c6-led_board.git
cd swift-embedded-xiao-esp32c6-led_board

2. Install dependencies:

idf.py set-target esp32c6

3. Build the project:

idf.py build

4. Flash to ESP32-C6:

idf.py flash

💻 Usage

1. Hardware Setup:

   • Connect the LED strip data wire to GPIO0
   • Ensure proper 5V power supply

2. Running the Program:

   • The program automatically starts and cycles through animations
   • Each effect has a 500ms transition delay

🎨 Customization

You can customize the animations by modifying Main.swift:

Adjusting Brightness

// Current brightness setting (5)
ledStrip.setPixel(index: i, r: 5, g: 5, b: 5)

Modifying Animation Speed

// Current delay between frames (50ms)
delay_ms(50)

Adding New Effects

Create a new function following the pattern:

func newEffect(ledStrip: LEDStrip) {
    // Your animation code here
}
