It’s done! Mechanical tulip as a present for my wife. When caressed it blooms into various colors. And will never fade.
What’s behind the magic? Few pics of #mechflower internals. It is controlled by Arduino Nano. Moved by a servo. And light up by 7 Adafruit NeoPixels and 30 SMD bright white LEDs.
A site hasn’t appeared with details but media has taken to the creation in the video below and Hackaday has posted about the same tweet we have.
