Control a verto with a potentiometer

Hey guy's!
I created this really cool circuit and programmed it - I created a "Microcontrolled verto": Basically its two circuits put together - the verto circuit and the potentiometer circuit. When you twist the potentiometer a bit clockwise the verto moves the same distance (degrees) clockwise..just like a microcontroller switch for a car. What do you think? (I'll put up some video's another day)
After I did that, I added an additional circuit - the Bi-colour LED cicuit: so when I twist the variable resister (potentiometer) slightly clockwise the LED is red, if twisted counterclockwise the LED is green! Im going to post some videos of that soon aswell. And all the explanations.

Now i'm going to be working on the digital display (I already memorised the pins and positions of the display :D )

Tell me what you think and hopefully see you guy's soon!

  1. Well Done Richard!!! So now you can control physical systems and light sequences with the twist of a dial. Fantastic! Can't wait to see those videos!
