Originally created by [Sean Hodgens](https://github.com/IdleHandsProject/pixopixel) as a Make 100, the hardware is interesting but no general purpose firmware has been created publically. I've contributed to the project a bit in the past [here](https://github.com/alopexc0de/pixopixel/tree/fw_cleanup), in the form of updating the readme and also some expansion/rewriting of example display functions. |
