Project 20 – LED Dot Matrix Display – Scrolling Sprite
You're going to use the same circuit, but with a slight variation in the code to create a multi-frame animation that also scrolls from right to left. In doing so, you will be introduced to the concept of multi-dimensional arrays. You'll also learn a little trick to get bitwise rotation (or circular shift). To start, you'll use the exact same circuit as in Project 19.
