Shadow Box

G got the arduino figured out for the servos. We now have a smooth movement and it's easily controlled by two pots. We got our laser cut mylar, attached to the motors and the projections were quite beautiful.

Testing with two servos for now.

To come:
G is in Texas for the SouthBySouthWestInteractive for SpringBreak, I will connect more servos onto this structure. He had programmed pins 0-5, which gives us 6 in total. We have enough textures to experiment with but it's quite obvious that the simple ones work the best. I will also program the superbright LEDs to get a PWM code going so that the lights fade in and out with the movements.

More to come.
