- CamperBob2 2y agoI'd be tempted to fill it with water with something dissolved in it to make it more conductive (and probably more viscous), and include LEDs whose brightness and/or color reflects the conductivity at their location. The rationale being, why should I do all that math when Nature will do it for me?
- lopis 2y agoIsn't that precisely his first idea? A device containing a conductive liquid (mercury) that takes care of closing the circuits and the turning on the LEDs.
- burnte 2y agoWater is a lot less luminescent than LEDs. I think the effect might be reduced if changed to a water based display.
- addled 2y agoWhat about a fluorescent dye with one (or few) UV LEDs on the edge facing inward to illuminate it? Maybe not “better” than OP’s design, but could be interesting in its own way.
- coolius 2y agoi was wondering whether this could be hardware accelerated.
