A very cool type of display. Could use a stamp probably!

    I doubt the Stamp is capable of running that...
    We're talking about 3000 nozzles firing at the same time. And the next 'dots' needs to be fired off at tightly timed intervals, or the picture will be a mess.

    The Propeller, or possibly an SX (using assembly or SX/B) should be able to do something like it.
    (Maybe not as big, though)

    It IS a cool display, though. smile.gif

    I wonder if you could use·8 or 16 valves and have a vertically scrolling message ?

    Really cool display. If Parallax wants to build one, I'd be up for programming and SX48 Protoboard for it [noparse];)[/noparse]
