Hard Drive Persistence of Vision HDPOV

Hard Drive Persistence of Vision (HDPOV) using arduino

The platter of a hard drive spins well over sixty times a second. If a narrow slot was cut into the platter to allow LEDs to shine through, we can achieve flicker fusion and trick the eye into seeing a stable image. This phenomenon is known as persistence of vision (POV). There are many examples of LEDs being used for POV, building …
