Star Trek TOS communicator prop- working

[JDonahue79]

It's amazing how technology gone through during only about 50 years. Some technology that we imagined during the 1960s, like this communicator device, is already obsolete in today's world. Back then, it was a person's dream. Today this device is like: clunky and obsolete, while we have these devices that plays games and talk through the internet on skype.

[Hyperdynelabs]

[skarovision]

How did you get hold of this? There not supposed to be shipped untill Feb/March 2008.

Woah, horsie, slow down that moiré disc. The original hero props used a stopwatch to motorize the disc, so you'll want to shoot for about a 1 RPM speed. Otherwise ... neat.

[Hyperdynelabs]

The moire is running at about 1rpm. The camera frame rate is showing some spatial aliasing - which looks like the moire is spinning faster. Rest assured it is not!

[jsf525]

you can always add a rister to the power lead to slow the more' down more. the new ds just came out and it is very much like the one you built. there selling for $30.some 1 has a video on here of it. very kool also.

I do love yours too.
