![]() ![]() It’s a great demonstration of wireless LED technology there’s something almost magical about the tiny free-moving glowing beads. However, instead of colored glass beads lit by external light, she replaced these with so-called “ wireless LEDs.” These little bead-like LEDs are fitted with small coils that allow them to be inductively powered without wires when they are placed in the magnetic field generated by a powered coil. Thus, ’s kaleidoscope works day or night, even in a dark room, since the light is coming from the little beady LEDs themselves. ’s kaleidoscope still relies on the typical mirror-tube construction to create reflections upon reflections which generate symmetrical patterns for the viewer. of Geek Mom Projects recently gave the classic toy a thoroughly modern twist with her own build. The kaleidoscope was first invented back in the early 1800s, with the curio known for showing compelling psychedelic patterns as light passes through colored glass and is reflected by mirrors in a tube. Video after the break.Ĭontinue reading “Plinko-Like Build Takes Advantage Of Wireless LEDs” → Posted in LED Hacks Tagged led, wireless led, wireless leds It would be quite mesmerizing, in much the same way as the kaleidoscope project built using these parts previously. We’d love to see the container full of LEDs mounted on a slowly-turning motor, such that they would tumble around endlessly, glowing all the while. Thanks to the induction coil mounted behind, the LEDs glow as they ricochet around the metal pins in various ways. ![]() They’re then installed in a hexagonal plastic container, featuring a grid of screws not unlike the metal pins of the game Plinko. This toughens up the LEDs and helps diffuse their light. The build takes the wireless LEDs and wraps each one up in a 1/4″-thick clear ring of acrylic. They exist, in the form of wireless induction-powered LEDs, and of Geek Mom Projects has been experimenting with them in a new way. Therefore, it would be in their best interests to get rid of Abassi and Abassi’s death in Kaleidoscopewas purely due to the threat she posed to The Triplets and their power.Imagine if you had some magic glowing beads, that would emit beautiful colors without any wires tangling them up. With the power and status the Triplets had, plus the moles in the FBI, it would not have been difficult for them to discover the threat Abassi posed, especially with Abassi’s inability to let a case go. “Pink,” the final episode in Kaleidoscope's chronological viewing order, showed Abassi had discovered this information and was closing in on The Triplets, theorizing about the insurance money scam they had pulled. Leo Pap’s daughter, Hannah Kim (Tati Gabrielle), had interrupted the heist and returned the bonds to The Triplets to save her father, but The Triplets were still able to hide this and claim theft on their insurance for more money. However, the events of “Pink” shows Abassi had made a lot of progress with the Kaleidoscope heist case. However, her death fits exactly with how Salas describes The Triplet’s choice of removing threats, and a re-watch of Kaleidoscope reveals this big clue to the cause of Abassi’s death.Ībassi’s death seemed quite unnecessary at first, especially with the biggest threats against her already being removed, such as Bob Goodwin (Jai Courtney) dead and Roger Salas in prison. ![]() A few streets later, Abassi suddenly collapses and dies, with her colleagues putting it down to being absorbed by the Leo Pap case and natural causes, her history with substances not helping in that area either. The man asking shakes her hand, and she goes about her day. In “Pink,” Abassi is walking about the streets when she is asked for directions. " You cross the wrong way, one day you're walking down the street, someone brushes your arm, three blocks later you drop dead of a heart attack." It was a small comment and not related to Abassi at the time, but his description is more or less exactly how Abassi dies. ![]() Despite the suggestion that Abassi died from natural causes, a comment from Roger Salas (Rufus Sewell) in “Blue” all but confirms that The Triplets killed FBI agent Abassi at the end of Kaleidoscope. ![]()
