Comment Comment by scottbez1 As a hardware side project I've been designing and building an open source split-flap display - the kind of electro-mechanical displays you used to see in train stations and airports that loudly flip through letters and numbers as they update.https://scottbez1.github.io/splitflap/Have a few working prototypes (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bslkflVv-Hw), but I'm currently redesigning the electronics/PCB to make it easier for hobbyists to build (i.e. avoiding tight pitch surface mount components - https://github.com/scottbez1/splitflap/issues/12), and I'd still like to figure out how to make them cheaper to build in small quantities. parent scottbez1 9 years ago
