BlinkenLEDsPro
BlinkenLEDsPro is the fusion of
BlinkenLEDs and GEM. BlinkenLEDs was one of the first 144 pixel Blinkenlights reproduction boards. Therefore it did not have the possibility to create grey-scales, as these were not used during the original first installation. Later the GEM board was developped. The GEM board and a linux-kernel module made it possible to enable grey-scale use in BlinkenLEDs. BlinkenLEDsPro now combines these two boards. In Windows they can be steered using for example BlinkenPlayerExxtreme or BlinkenTool.
Alas only without grey-scale support, because someone has to write a Windows-software that takes over the work of the linux kernel module. Volunteers are welcome to put themselves forward on our Forum or on our Mailinglist.
In Linux one can use for example the original Blinkenlights-Software blccc (Blinkenlights Chaos Control Center) in combination with the kernel module. With blccc you can also stream Blinkenlightsmovies to and from a Windows-Machine. There are innumerable other ways of feeding your BlinkenLEDsPro and of course a phone (or Phone-simulation software) can be used to play those all time favorite games Pong, Retris and XXO. It can also be used as a Clock, Winampanalyzer or as a News-, Weather-, Statusdisplay. In case of questions and/or problems you'll always have Premiumsupport of the BlinkenArea.

BlinkstroemAdvanced
Blinkstroem Advanced consists of a single PCB, incorporating all components: Power supply, Microcontroller (Atmega16), SD/MMC slot and 144 LED's. SD- and MMC Cards are used for data storage. To make simple and fast updating of the movies on the card possible, the graphics data is read directly from a Fat16 Filesystem on the card. Furthermore 8 grey tones are shown, making it possible to play even Blinkenlights reloaded movies. The grey tones are being generated using pulse width modulation. As the brightness of the LED's is not linear to the palpation relationship, the pulse width modulation is not generated linear to the brightness. Herewith a somewhat even brightness-distribution of the grey tones has been realized on cost of the maximum number of grey tones.

ArcadeMini
ARCADEmini is a standalone Blinkenlights Arcade reproduction with 520 pixels. Normally the movies are loaded from a compact-flash-card, but it is also possible to connect the ARCADEmini to a computer (Linux or Windows) using USB. Besides movies you can also load games onto the ARCADEmini and for example play Pacman using two SNES-controllers.
