They used an accelerometer to detect the velocity changes and thusly the resultant current velocity. This seems like overkill as increasing spin velocity could stretch a leaf spring. The springs end position could be detected with a variety of cheap methods (capacitance, light reflectivity, magnetic field) to determine velocity.

Not at least I posted the project in ladyadas forum so everybody can see where I got the basicstarttechnics from.

The difference to the other projects is the wish to make it availabel for the people that are not able or willing to solder / program and to give it a special use (communicating with unknown people). This will be clear in V.2 with usb- dockingstation to reload the built in li-ion battery and write txt on it very easy.

Reminds of a project in university where I had to get a single line of leds to display an image and then take a photo of the image by increasing the exposure time of the camera and sweeping across the field of view.
I really wanna try this.

If you could buy one premade with a dock for recharging and changing the text I’d definitely get one because I lack the skills to build one.

Would be really good for night clubs etc.
