* mechanically-scanned POV: a linear row of LEDs is wiped across a large area. Each LED is turned on and off with precise timing to generate a 2D image. (p.s.: each LED must be directly driven from the microcontroller or a shift register. "matrix" or "Charlieplexing" does not work in combination with mechanically scanned POV.) | * mechanically-scanned POV: a linear row of LEDs is wiped across a large area.
