Two Dimensional CAD

Persistence of Vision Bike Light Project

This project will use a 3.3 volt Arduino Pro Mini clone that you will design the circuit board, housing, and software for. Persistence of vision is a psychological effect that allows you to see two dimensional images that were created by one dimensional flashing LEDs. Here are some similar projects:

We will have an MMA8452 accelerometer that communicates via a serial I2C interface. The accelerometer will measure the angular acceleration, which will allow the velocity of the bike wheel to be calculated. This will make it possible to flash LEDs at the proper time intervals to spell words, draw pictures, etc, as you ride your bike down the road at night.
