This last week I built a box to house all of the electronics and mounted it on a tripod. The box is made out of plywood and balsa wood. It holds the Arduino, motor, and H-bridge. I drilled a hole in the bottom and glued in a 1/4 inch nut so that a tripod mount can be attached to the box. I also got a power supply and finished all of the wiring.
This is my initial attempt to get the projection working with the spinning blade.
The main problem right now is that the LEDs are so bright that the color is getting lost and they only appear as white on the webcam feed. I've tried reducing the color intensity but that doesn't seem to help a significant amount. Currently my plan is to try and use a DSLR camera as a webcam so that I can get more control over the video feed. If that doesn't work my plan is to put something over the blade to diffuse the light.
