WiFi LED Pixel Art & GIF Display

47 pictures, 12 animated scenes, your own GIFs and pictures, or a short message — no key, no code.

Animated Pixel Art: the Pac Chase scene.

What you need

  • A DataPix, powered on and joined to your WiFi (see Setup).
  • For imports: a GIF or picture on your phone or computer.

Step by step

  1. Pixel Art — a picture, or your own

    Add a View → Custom texts & animations → Pixel Art, then pick one of 47 pictures — knights, slimes, pizza, a snowman, a race car… It's added as a value you can place anywhere. Want your own? Create icon, pick a size up to 32×32 and draw it; it's saved on the device under Your icons.

  2. Animated Pixel Art — a scene

    Animated Pixel Art offers 12 scenes (Pac Chase, Aquarium, Night City, Campfire, Snow Globe…), 11 backgrounds, 14 patterns and 26 full-panel effects, with a live preview. Each is saved as ordinary frames you can paint over. See them all playing →

  3. Import GIF / Picture — your own image

    Choose a file. It's decoded in your browser, resized to the panel and shown as a view — nothing is uploaded anywhere else. GIFs can have up to 180 frames.

  4. Custom Text & Quote — a short message

    Custom Text is a message you type. Quote picks a short quote from a built-in list and scrolls it. Text wider than the panel scrolls sideways on its own.

Everything here becomes an ordinary view you can edit — add text, values from apps, or painted pixels on top.
