Simple initial test without a Nipkow disc.
Posted: Sun Jun 24, 2007 4:52 am
Having built part of the electronics and LEDs etc I wish to test it out.
As the Nipkow is not yet made there seems no point in running the clubs CD etc as I would not be able to make any sense of the fast LED light variations by eye.
So, using a video application I have made a simple .avi file of a white screen slowly fading to black. Using Gary's Video2NBTV I have converted that to a .wav file and onto a CD.
When I get a portable CD player I hope to play this file and be able to see the LED cluster slowly fade out from full brilliance to black, without using any Nipkow as an initial test.
