MLB LED Scoreboard in the Cloud
24 pts 1 month ago · game dev · devops
(cross-cutting) The author deployed a live MLB LED scoreboard to the cloud using Dockerization and the RGBMatrixEmulator. The setup is straightforward: containerize mlb-led-scoreboard, expose port 8888, and deploy to Fly.io. The project streams raw frame data via websocket to render live game displays. Key insight: this approach is generalizable to any project using hzeller's rpi-rgb-led-matrix library. Versions are available for World Baseball Classic and regular season games. Primary consideration: bandwidth costs from continuous websocket streaming of frame data.
