5x5x5 LED 3D visualisation unit

The purpose of this project is to build 3D LED cube controlling from PIC Microcontrollers. There are several types of LED cubes available with Microcontrollers. LED cubes, small 3x3x3 cubes, bi-color, RGB and mono cubes, amazing 16 x 16 x 16 RGB cubes. The cube described on this project uses a 5 x 5 x 5 matrix of single color LEDs. This is a good size to experiment with as the number of LEDs required at 125 keeps the cost down, doesn’t take too long to assemble and just fits onto a euro card sized PCB . In this design we are able to project simple 3D images in a pre-programmed sequence. This is done by means of lighting the required LEDs that form the particular image.
