Hello everybody. I am looking for a little guidance on a project I am working on. I can do the coding but my electronics knowledge is somewhat limited. I would like to control approximately 50 LED lights individually but mounted in different locations. Basically, I would have a screen with 50 small buttons labeled 1 - 50. I will push one and then that LED will illuminate while others are unaffected. My question is what hardware I should use? I can pick the LED's, resistors, etc, no problem. Obviously a serial connector soldered to:
what kind of board?
what comes after the serial connection (Microcontroller?)
I would assume something to process the address of LED location...
If anybody can show me a diagram or suggest some hardware, I surely would appreciate it.
Thanks,
