Abstract:
1. An amusement device, comprising: a rotating assembly display rotatably mounted about a center point configured to create a plurality of images on a display space via a persistence of vision effect caused by light emitted by light sources on the rotating assembly, the images being greyscale and having at least three different states including a BRIGHT state, an OFF state and a DIM state; a device for rotating the rotating assembly; a control circuit including a first microcontroller for providing display information to the rotating assembly for creating the images, the display information being based on pixels in a source image wherein each pixel in the source image is displayed according to a plurality of positions of each of the light sources within each pixel of the source image as the rotating display is rotated and wherein at least one of the plurality of positions is a pixel boundary of each pixel and each light source is illuminated or off as they are moved within the plurality of positions and wherein the illumination of each light source depends on the location of each light source as it moves within the plurality of positions of each pixel.
