Animated face using 5 Adafruit LED matrix panels

Hi Everyone,

I’m a n00b to the forums/BeagleBoards and I have a question regarding a project I’m working on.

The goal is to create an animated face using 5 of the 16x32 LED matrices from Adafruit (http://www.adafruit.com/products/420). 2 of the panels will be the eyes and the other 3 are the mouth.

Is this possible using a BeagleBone Black and the Octoscroller v2 cape (http://www.element14.com/community/community/knode/single-board_computers/next-gen_beaglebone/blog/2014/01/08/beaglebone-cape-for-octoscroller-led-matrix)?

Thanks for any help or advice ya’ll can offer!
