A nice whoppin’ rectangular slab of some lovely black acrylic to add some extra diffusion to your LED Matrix project. This material is 2.6mm (0.1″) thick and is made of special cast acrylic that makes it perfect for glowy projects, especially matrices or NeoPixels.
Unlike smoke or other-tinted acrylic, this material sharpens the pixels and reduces the glare. You get a great looking display, all colors are vivid and readable indoors and out!
We give you a 10.2″ x 5.1″ / 260mm x 130mm piece. You can score or laser cut it down to any custom shape you need, works great in laser cutters – treat it like any other acrylic.
Note: This is just a sheet of acrylic panel, no mounting equipment or LED matrices are included.

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
