| |
| − | The Orbital Rendersphere displays images and videos on a four-foot diameter spherical surface using persistence of vision (POV).
| |
| − | Uses a (stationary) Mac Mini to render each frame, and a (spinning) BeagleBone Black to update the LEDs.
| |
| − | Slip ring for power; Wi-Fi to transfer data.
| |
| − | The Orbital Rendersphere displays video at 30 frames per second by spinning four vertical LED strips spaced 90 degrees apart at 450 RPM.
| |
| − | 36 feet of WS80211 LED strips.
| |
| − | ''(But it looks like 2 complete circles, each 4 ft diameter -- isn't that closer to 25 feet?)''
| |
| − | 102x224 pixel resolution.
| |
| − | Several people comment that this is the biggest POV globe they've ever seen.

| − | * Mike Szczys. [http://hackaday.com/2012/09/11/full-color-video-on-a-spinning-pov-display/ "Full-color video on a spinning POV display"]. Built by Félix, Sylvain, and Jérémy at at Telecom ParisTech. highest-resolution POV display I've seen so far. "The time it took us was roughly two months full time". (Does this have a name?)
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * [https://www.das-labor.org/wiki/Borg_Ventilator "Borg Ventilator"]. Twice the resolution of the Telecom ParisTech display? A total of 244 RGB LEDs (spread over 4 wings). Has standard VGA input; a Xilinx FPGA and a bunch of support chips convert to circular coordinates. Power through slip rings. Data through non-contact inductive transfer (recycled VCR head). "The speed is infinitely adjustable between 0 and 2500 rpm / min. The FPGA adapts to the actual speed"
