Build 16x16x16 Interactive RGB Cube

I’d like to commission the complete fabrication of a 16 × 16 × 16 RGB LED cube. The job covers everything from refining or creating the electronic design right through to a fully assembled, tested unit I can power up at home.

Scope
• Electronic design: Because I don’t yet have a schematic, I’ll need you to lay out the driver circuitry, choose the appropriate microcontroller, and size all supporting components such as resistors, capacitors, and power regulation.
• PCB work: Produce the board files, have the boards fabricated (or guide me to a service), and populate them.
• LED matrix assembly: Precisely solder all 4,096 RGB LEDs into a true-geometric cube, ensuring even spacing, correct orientation, and solid joints.
• Firmware: Program the microcontroller so I can trigger patterns and colour sequences from an app or handheld remote. The interface can be Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or another practical wireless protocol—whichever you judge most reliable at this scale.
• Final test: Demonstrate that every LED responds accurately and that interactive commands reach the cube with minimal latency.

Acceptance criteria
1. No dead or dim LEDs across the entire matrix.
2. Wireless control reliably selects at least ten pre-loaded patterns and accepts live colour/brightness changes.
3. Power draw remains within the limits you document.
4. All design files (schematics, firmware source, PCB Gerbers) are handed over so the project is fully reproducible.

If parts procurement or shipping logistics need to be discussed, let me know your preferred approach and lead times. I’m happy to cover reasonable material costs once we agree on them.

Feel free to share examples of previous LED or microcontroller builds that prove your skill level. If this isn’t in your wheelhouse but you know someone who thrives on large-scale soldering projects, an introduction would be appreciated.
