Insanely cool, thanks for sharing! Gives me some fun ideas…

Genious idea! Now all you have to do is print the segments in a transparent plastic, black the complete front, and backlight the module.

Just yesterday you’ve showed me this video and I thought to myself what a waste of is to use 30 servos for a project like this:

You’re solution is so much cooler.

This video was the inspiration for my project!

I’m testing a geneva drive (you can see it in the front in the photo), that should allow me to reduce the number of motor even further. I think I can get it down to two, maybe even one.

Dang, camshaft + Geneva is really obvious in hindsight, cool.
