Rotated LEDs

This is so cool, colours and a lot bigger would be nice.

We found this idea on the internet - Bob Blick Proppeller Clock.
My budy Merijn and I wanted to make our own one.
I am not sure if Bob was the first one with this idea but I like it :)
Watch the movies we made of our project ( Movie 1 & Movie 2 ).

Bob Blick - Proppeller Clock

Used Hardware Components:

Atmel Atmega16. To drive the LEDs.
16x Green LEDs. To show the message.
Crystal 8MHz. The oscilator frequenty of the microcontroller.
IR Led and IR diode. To know where to start.
Experimental Print. To solder all components on it.
Case. Backbone of the project.
Motor. To rotor the arm. From an old screwmachine.
IC Tube. This is the arm to hold the leds and the electronics.
