Physical Computing: Creating an MVP / by harry wakeling

This week I created a meaningful viable product for one of the final projects of this term.

I was interested in experimenting with ‘Peppers Ghost’, a hologram effect that dates back to the Victorian Era. I set up a potentiometer that controlled a simple animation changing the length and direction of a line - once I had mirrored this 4 times I placed it underneath a prism that created the illusion of 3D movement. I was happy with the outcome of this test, particularly how the hologram was a direct result of the users input.
