LED Orb by Shawn Sprinkle

Project Description

The LED Orb is a device that spins three LED’s (one red, one green, one blue) at very high speeds in three different axis with varying flash rates to create a cool light effect.  I was inspired to make this after I saw a video (linked in the references below) of the first LED orb.

Take a look at the pages below to follow along with my progress!
