Hmmm, I'd estimate upwards of 6 million...
I've looked up the specs for controlling 80 leds in a matrix layout... and that was upwards of $100...

Until our bytes cross again, may your chips never smoke, your bits never fall off, your parts bin never be empty and your jumpers never fall off.

Hmmm, 736x2112x3(RGB) that's 4,663,296 LEDs. At 20mA each thats 93,265.92 amps !!!
Holy cow, won't it need it's own power plant to run it (and it says they are building two of them).
I didn't see how much the contract was to built it either. Hmmm....

So if you could mount and solder in one LED per second, then it would take 53 days working 24 hrs per day to get them all done!
Cheers, and a Happy New Year to all,
