Controlling LED strips from MadMapper In addition to being the easiest and quickest video mapping tool, MadMapper can also control lighting? How does that work? We will explain the theory of operation to control lights, and more specifically LED strips, with MadMappers new MadLight feature. For that, we will first do an overview of the devices and technologies needed. Then we will see an example of a simple LED strip installation followed by some details of the installation of “The Cave”. Note that this tutorial focuses on LED strips, but MadLight can control any DMX512 compatible device. Try-this-at-home-with-care disclaimer ** Working with electrical devices requires some knowledge to avoid problems or even life threatening accidents. ** Low voltages used to power LEDs are not lethal but can be dangerous. Technical description Before explaining the tool chain needed to control LEDs from MadMapper, we need an introduction to the technologies and devices used. attributes: LED strips work with DC voltage.
