Hello everyone!
I'm not certain this is possible, but here's what I've been trying to figure out how to do. Any help or advice you can give me is *greatly* appreciated.
I have a ring of LEDs, mounted underneath a crystal diffuser. I would like the LEDs to fade on and off, in a sequential way.
That is, I would like the LED at the 12:00 position on the ring to fade on, begin to fade off, and then have the LED at the 1:00 position fade on as the 12:00 LED fades off. Then the LED at 2:00 fades on, etc. My hope is that when the light is diffused, it will give the illusion of a single light source rotating underneath the diffuser.
In a perfect world, I'd be able to dim the entire array, and change the speed of the "rotation," but I don't even know how I'd begin to do any of this.
Any suggestions? PWM? Some sort of timing circuit?
Thanks very much!
