How to use WS2812B / SK6812 LED strip to make pixel screen ?
If you want to DIY, please see information regarding making large display through addressable LED strip below:
Pixel LED strip SK6812 and WS2812B has the same function, in practice , SK6812 is more reliable than WS2812B which we can supply both.
SK6812 / WS2812B addressable strip’s signal is in series means when one IC dies, the signal is not able to pass through. There are digital LED strip IC like WS2812B, TM1914, TM1934 and GS8208 can avoid these issues, these have parallel signal, even one IC does not work, the signal can still pass.
