Not yet. but it could be fun. An idea I had years ago when I first saw someone spinning fire is that it would be cool to build a staff with colored LEDs along the length, and position sensors in the tips, and a receiver in it to control the LEDs, so that as it spun through space a computer could control what lights were on, and the lights could define three dimensional shapes. -- Larry Colen [email protected] sent from i4est -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
