I'll replace the LEDs... with LASERS!

^ ..... and blind everyone ? ..... (j/k )

Hi guys, Im working on one if these for my electonics final project (Im in highschool) and I was wondering if anyone could suggest some LEDs that would be suitable for this, ( viewing angle, intensity, size, brand, etc. The ones I had werent nearly as bright as the ones FML used. Also, for the slip rings on the 1st and second axis, Im using the previously mentioned 2.5 mm jack method, but I need a solution small enough to fit on the slicon wafer for the LEDs, the pen spring method sounds good, but Im not sure if the axel of the motor Im using is isolated. Also, what can I do to stabilize the current in case the slip contacts glitch? Capacitors maybe? Ill post some pics whn Im a bit farther along as it looks like a monster of scrap metal and hotglue as of now. Thanks in advanced, and sorry if Im still a bit if a newb.

[QUOTE=FireMyLaser;686319]Some of you might remember my LED Ball I made a few years ago... It had three LEDs and two axes. Now I've made another one with three axes!
hey do you have a thread up here about the first one cause i wanna try to make that one before i try this if not this is still really cool

Nope, that was before I was a member here. Also, how come this thread gets bumped monthly, where did you find it?

How much would you sell one for?

I am sorry but it is not for sale, and I am not able to make another one at this time.

Awww man. That thing is sooo cool. Good job with it!

I still think this is a grand creation

do you have still the Electronic drafting???
i must do this!!!!
if you havh tham still please send them to my email: yakovzargarov@gmail.com
thanks.

Few questions:
For the bike light controller, do you know what frequency the LED's were being pulsed at?
Also, are all the LED's connected in parallel or do you have individual control over each one? Do you know the approximate RPM of each axis?
Thanks

Simply Awesome but too complicated to build for me

Ji

FML, this thing should go to mass-production. If i had your talent, i would try to get in contact with Philips or a electronic company. THINK BIG, there is nothing to loose.

I could watch that thing for hours. Love it !!!

i know FML hasn't posted in this thread since like march, but i was wondering if FML has considered designing the spinning armature such that it can be printed on a 3D printer? The plastic is certainly strong enough, and the models for the armature could be designed to fit bolts and motors into, sort of like how the REPRAP machine can print most of its own parts.

I'm bumping my thread because of something I'd like to ask real quick, but first I apologize for my own absence from this thread.

I have been contacted by a person, presumably working for a Spanish TV show called "El Hormiguero". They want me to ship the device over for them to show off in this TV show. I am interested about doing it, but how can I know that this is no funny business? I know nothing about the show and they are not showing interest in bringing me over.

I don't even think it would be as interesting if the person who made it wasn't there explaining how it was made, time spent on it, etc.

hello all
FireMyLaser, can you give me some directions to make it
I want to have one. Maybe it's not good like yours, but i want to try it.
