I am a novice when it comes to electronics but would very much like to build a mechanical television for an art project. I signed up for the NBTV newsletter and am looking at the boards for sale. On the website it states there is an LED driver that will support up to 40 LEDs. Which of the two designs will power the most LEDs? The Klaas Robers or Peter Smith?
I plan to drive and sync the motor with an arduino and only require a board to drive the LEDs. Any guidance would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Yann

What if I just used a fresnel lens on a regular sized Nipkow? Fresnel lens come in large sizes. Does anyone foresee any problems of using a fresnel lens as large as 6"x6". What about 1' x 1'?
Cheers,
Yann
