Project Overview
We are attempting to create a spinning LED display capable of displaying 3D objects from all directions on a cylindrical shape. Our display can include basic shapes such as cubes, cylinders, and spheres. Finally, our display will be able to animate such shapes.
Objectives
- Design a mechanically robust device that will house the components including Arduino, batteries, and LEDs.
- Position each component so the device is capable of displaying basic 3D objects on a cylindrical volume
- Develop an algorithm to control when each LED turns on and off during the display cycle
Challenges
- Having a mechanical design that has a center of mass around the axis of rotation
- Mount the device on a motor
- Build a device so the wires are not entangled while device is spinning
- Wire connections do not break while device is spinning
- Ensure that device spins at constant rate
- Determine ideal rpm for device for visual display
- Mounting battery and Arduino on the spinning portion of the device
- Mounting Frame unto the motor
