3D Printed Color Nipkow Display

This video is about my 3D-printed Color Nipkow Display project. The Nipkow disk was used in early television systems and can mechanically scan or create an image. The disk contains several holes on a spiral which will form in my case 32 lines. At any given moment in time, only one hole passes the LED which changes it’s brightness and color to create separate pixels on the lines. I wanted to create a mechanical Nipkow display based on Arduino which can be easily reproduced without complex mechanical machining. So I decided to design and 3d-print all necessary components - including the Nipkow disk itself.  for a detailed description (also on how to built), please see my Hackster page for this project : Chapters : 00:00 Start 00:18 Quick demo 00:38 Printing 01:28 Assembly 04:41 Electronics, Blockchart and Schematics 05:28 Making the DAC PCB 06:38 final assembly 08:50 Calibration 09:30 Outro Music : VO
