Visuals divided into multiple LEDs that vary in size.

I was watching this video of a guy called Weirdcore who does the live visuals for Aphex Twin;

Between 23:20 to 24:00 he is describing how they use various LEDs and map them differently or alternate between them live. Knowing that it can be achieved with Resolume, I decided ask here.

The problem is that, I have never worked with LED panels, don’t have an idea where to start and kinda have to in a few weeks time.

Hardware wise
I’m assuming it can’t be done with just a high-end laptop and simple video output, right?
What kind of hardware would be required for this kind of a task assuming there would be approx 5-6 different panels with varying sizes?
Does this things vary between different models and brands of LED panels?

Software wise
As these LED panels come in pixel sizes, what would be the workflow of the TD sketch, at this point if any tutorial would kick start, that would be fantastic.

I do not have a chance to try them in advance before the actual performance, therefore need to make sure that it will work.

Thanks very much and sorry for the clueless question.

As he say in the video, LED screens are really low resolution usually, so a decent laptop with a 1080p output could really be enough.

Have a look at this Video we have in the Video training series to get you started mapping LED screens with Resolume:
