Hey peoples... <br>
<br>
For the last day and half I've been working on a wind turbine powered weather station using an 8 bit/LED POV on the spinning blades for the display...<br>
I'm trying to one up the neighbors solar LEDs.. lol<br>
<br>
The stepper being used as a generator is mounted to the blades and the
shaft is held stationary to negate the need for slip rings... <br>
I have the hardware built and am currently working on the code. The
entire system is running under 5 volts (3.5v) which is a first for me...<br>
<br>
The project is semi-written up on my site here <a href="http://krazatchu.ca/?page_id=198%20"><span id="PresenceContainer"></span>http://krazatchu.ca/?page_id=198 </a><br>I will add the code and eagle files once it's finished... <br>Let me know what you think...<br><br>Michael<br> <br /><hr />Look 'em in the eye: FREE Messenger video chat <a href='http://go.microsoft.com/?linkid=9734382' target='_new'>Chat Now!</a></body>
