hi I’m the new guy
I have some robotics experience from the old LEGO mindstorm 2.0, and the FIRST Robotics challenge, but have virtually no experience with building circuit boards from scratch.
I’m looking into building a 2005 Sonic Screwdriver prop from the sci-fi show Dr. Who. The 2005 Sonic Screwdriver is about 7 inches closed about 8 inches open and about 30/32" in diameter. It is controlled by two buttons to select the proper function and a third button for execution of the function, the screwdriver has 5 levels of brightness and has a motor to extend the head with the light, if I could have sound that would be cool. The display would be just 6 LEDs, 5 blue ones for the levels of brightness and one red for the motor.
