Ceiling Fan POV

Posted October 31, 2011 by Chris

“Initially, the POV was created using 8 red LEDs, a shift register and an Arduino. This allowed for single color text based images. Once I gained experience and learned the concepts the design moved on to use 8 RGB LEDs. For this I used 8 common-cathode RGB LEDs, 3 shift registers (parallel out), and an Arduino.”
