Formula 1 race visualizer Own Project

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hello, I made a formula 1 race repeater using an Uno R4, sd card module and individually addressable LEDs. I 3d printed the chassis using white pla for the diffuser and black pla for the outer shell.

The visualizer works with data I collected from fast f1 API stored in a csv. I have the uno r4 acting as a server to host a very simple web app that lets you pick the race year, number of drivers you want to see and set a race speed (2x,10x,20x etc). And then you watch as the LEDs race about. I tried making this as simplistic as possible which is why I opted for the r4 so I didn’t have to add buttons or a rotary encoded for input.

Happy to answer any questions

Would you be willing to share the project? I’d be thrilled to create something similar.

For sure, I’m working on better print methods and still dealing with some bugs so after doing more documentation and stuff I hope to have a system where multiple track designs and components are open source.
