Do more with Modules
Unlock Infinite Possibilities with Lumyn Labs Modules!
With zero coding required, each Module connects instantly to ConnectorX and is fully integrated within the Lumyn Studio app for streamlined control and functionality.
Modules can interface over I2C, SPI, GPIO, and more, enabling seamless integration into your projects. Whether using pre-built options or creating your own, you tailor them to meet your exact needs. As a way to give back, Modules can be contributed back to the community for inclusion in future releases.
Animations
Combine and preview flexible LED animations within the Studio before directly uploading to your ConnectorX
Text, Images, and GIFs
Leverage the Studio's Image Sequence editor to import existing images/GIFs or start from scratch. Then add, edit, or remove frames before exporting to your ConnectorX
Accelerate Your Development
Capturing Sensor Data
Instead of spending hours on product pages and documentation for your sensor to end up non-functional due to an old library or plugging in a wire incorrectly, use ConnectorX Modules to directly configure attached sensors from Lumyn Studio and ensure they work correctly the first time.
Advanced LED Effects
Designing animations is hard, and creating them to work without blocking the other important tasks your board is doing is an even larger challenge. With ConnectorX, you can leverage our collection of premade Animations by themselves or in an Animation Sequence. And thanks to the ability to extend our firmware, you can even add custom animations.
Extensible Graphics
An LED matrix is a great way to show fun graphics or display an important message. By using Lumyn Studio's Image Sequence editor, you can simply import existing images or add your own to build exciting videos that play on any size of matrix. Text commands let your ConnectorX scroll any sequence of characters across a matrix without having to do any additional setup.
First Robotics Competition
Say goodbye to manually creating animations for your LED strips and pouring through documentation when connecting sensors to your RoboRIO.
With our WPILIB Vendordep, simply specify the Zone/Group, your Animation/Sequence/Image Sequence, and a color/delay to display incredible visuals.
The Vendordep also supports receiving data asynchronously from all of your connected Modules- allowing for familiar Arduino libraries to be leveraged in custom firmware that you can extend!
