Beginner project idea
hello.
i have not used arduino , have no experience electronics. love have go.
i have idea clock works having circle of 60 leds, circle of 60 leds inside first circle , circle of 12 leds inside that. outer circle seconds, middle minutes , inner hours. work lighting next led every second outer circle, next led every minute middle , on. each circle display second, minute , hour respectively. hope makes sense.
what know whether possible arduino , whether beginner friendly.
thank in advance, ~perronicus

so want control 132 leds. yes, arduino can it, additional hardware.
you treat leds 16x9 matrix using 2 8-bit shift registers 16 rows , 9 i/o pins 9 columns.
you use addressable led strips more expensive plain leds. if use rgb strip need 60 leds , use colors (red, green, , blue) hours, minutes, , seconds.
in either case need real time clock (rtc) keep accurate time or gps receiver view of sky.
