Build a zoetrope inspired visual art display with 3D printed parts and Adafruit CRICKIT. Party Parrot Zoetrope Learn Guide https://learn.adafruit.com/party-parrot-zoetrope This creates the illusion of motion by rotating a series of acrylic panels that feature engravings of a single frame of animation. A NeoPxiel illuminates the artwork engraving on the acrylic panels and changes color each frame to make a stunning effect. Powered by the Adafruit CRICKIT and Feather M4 running CircuitPython, this uses a DC motor and a photo interrupter to trigger a NeoPixel whenever the sensor detects a break.
