Soccer Scoreboard (DIY)

A DIY soccer scoreboard project.

The idea is to build a Soccer Scoreboard with a RGB addressable LED strip to create the digits.
The scoreboard should show the SCORE and TIME, that you can choose between a countdown clock or a real-time clock.
There are two options to change parameters and control the game score:

  • Infrared Remote Controller
  • Portal accessed by ad-hoc Wifi connection
