“Bought this to add to my music streaming project as a spotify playlist manager. I'm really impressed, it's extremely bright and lots of fun to play with. Here is what I have done with it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqf_fhAwm4I
Downloaded a star wars font and it worked fine. Would say only negatives are that text must be displayed at a large scale otherwise it appears too blurry when reduced in size, but I am comparing it to the scrollphat which is clearer, but has less font options. I've only had it a few weeks but am really pleased with it, another great pimoroni product!”
“I've used this fantastic LEDs matrix for monitoring my Raspberry pi: splendide bar graph representing in real time level of CPU, RAM, disk space and CPU temperature with colors moving from green to red depending on the level shown. The Python library is so easy to use: programming the Unicorn Hat HD is very fast.
My project is public on a French website: this is rock'n'roll monitoring ! Thanks to Pimoroni”
“Unicorn hat hd is a real solution looking for problems. You have in the hand a marvelous thing and you start to think what to do with it. Personally I have built a scrolling clock with the time always updated from internet.

Amazing!”
“This is my second Unicorn HAT HD. The first is still working fantastically as a night light for my daughters. Evil plans for the second resolve around a funky build status visualiser. The associated python library is great.”
“Such fun! I've fitted the included diffuser to mine and it's a joy to look at. I've begun to tinker with it using the projects in the Github repo, which are a great place to begin. The instructions are super clear and I'm looking forward to doing even more with it as my skills improve.”
