Heres what to do with left-over Arcade Buttons...Thanks Google!

All the Arcade Punk builders have buttons and left over ‘bits’ in the ‘spares box’ , so if you happen to have some LED buttons left over (5880 of them!) you can do exactly what Google have done in their lobby….

Using their own open source code (Dont you just love Google and Open Source!!), AnyPixel.js Described by Google as 2AnyPixel.js is an open-source software and hardware library that makes it possible to use the web to create big, unusual, interactive displays out of all kinds of things. Anyone can fork the code and the schematics to create their own display at any scale”.

So they’ve created a big board with a bunch of buttons, and you can too then you can write software for it in JavaScript using the Canvas API just like you’re making a website. Imagine, buttons as easy to program as websites! Google used this tech to build an elaborate display for its NY office lobby, and has open sourced the hardware schematics and software needed to make your very own.
