Reading (!) DMX or Neopixel data with the Pi Pico to control stepper motors

[MichaelMuckKremtz]

Hi everyone! I'm working on a kinetic light installation that fits in two DHL shippable solar-cases and that I want to open source once it's working properly and am looking for someone with bit shifting PIO experience to help me implement a DMX input to control stepper motors. Reading the first 32bits from a Neopixel datastream would also be an option. It's time that there are libraries for this in micropython.
I don't really know where to look since I do this in my free time and the mechanical construction is pretty tricky as well...
Any help would be highly appreciated 🙂

@peterhinch your script from https://forum.micropython.org/viewtopic.php?p=62674#p62683 helped me make my first ever contact to the ability to measure digital data but I'm completely new to this kind of programming. Maybe you have some tips for me?

All the best from Cologne!
