Hello Community, Here is the introduction to my project POV Globe. I have been fastenated for years with Persistence of Vision (POV). I have created POV wands for my kids, but I have always wanted to create a globe. I want to go into great depth...
I have been spending most of my free time and driving time mulling over the project. I have decided that how the monitor is framed is important to ensure that it has the look and feel of a real window. There are two challenges with this. Mounting the...

As I didn't want to be an official entry to this PiCasso challenge I have waited until the official contestants have been announced (well done to all of them) in order to avoid muddying the waters, so to speak. At the moment I'm still not sure what a...
Checking my email this morning I see an email from Phil. To be honest I did not expect to qualify for the challenge, but here I am. Long on ideas and short of experience would be the best description I can give. I feel a little overwhelmed and wonder...
While I was looking for inspiration to bring and idea to life for the PiCasso Design Challenge I came across something clever, really unique and something I really wanted to try for myself once I understood how it worked: A Hologram-like projection u...
A While ago I got a new shipment. It's a 8X8 LED matrix kit for Raspberry Pi. The idea is that I'll assembly the kit and use it to practice programming on the device - and then eventually I'll just replace the LEDs with resistors or somet...

I was too excited to shoot an unboxing video, but here it is. I was a bit worried as they first said that the kit will be on back order and it will take 4-5 weeks for it to come. Now when it arrived, I'm not yet feeling ready to start playing wit...
I just spent almost 200 € to purchase the stuff I need for my project. I have had this idea for a couple of years and I planned to do it with Arduino, but never got the inspiration to start. Now the challenge might be good enough excuse to get things...
