It's a Rechargeable Remote Control and Programmable Laser Ball! I made this video to show how it can be made and how awesome it looks.

Build your own! - http://www.instructables.com/id/Laser-Ball/
LeoneLabs - http://www.leonelabs.com

Many people (myself included) have been impressed by the Laser Ball so I wanted to share it with the world. I originally envisioned the Laser Ball as a upgraded LED poi but after several variations its gone well beyond just another poi ball. Now it reminds me more of a lightsaber training droid...

Be sure to check the Instructable for details on where to buy components and how to assembly one yourself!

Also, get further details about the Laser Ball and my other projects at my blog...

Cheers!

  • My mom once said that you can't make something simply because it is awesome. This just happens to be so awesome that the reason to make it is due to sheer awesomeness, making the awesome self-sustaining. Because of the self sustaining awesome, if you remove the ball itself, you are left, simply, with PURE AWESOME. 'gratz, you have just invented a physical embodiment of awesome itself. you are now god for all intents and purposes.

  • @MrAcuriteOf1337 - Well said! :)

  • Hi there, this looks pritty funky LOL! well done. Can i ask you what camera you are using for your videos please

  • @DiyEcoProjects - It was a basic Canon point-and-shoot (Canon SD780 IS)

  • @LeoneLabs Hey im currently working on this but i ran into a bit of problems 1. Where do i put the GND? and 2 the IR remote codes give me an (Error Compiling i was wondering if you could help thanks!

  • @xxAmericanistaxx - Try checking out the Laser Ball Instructable. Be sure to look in the comments too. The GNDs are all tied together; the battery GND, teensy GND, laser GND, and IR GND. The error codes are probably because you need to also install Ken Shirrifs IR library.
