Arduino RGB Color Mixer With LEGO Enclosure and Bead Crystals
This machine allows users to transition between different colors by rotating a knob connected to an Arduino-controlled RGB LED.
Supplies
Electronics:
Arduino Uno Board - 1 pcs
RGB LED - 1 pcs
Potentiometer (10kΩ) - 1 pcs
Resistor 220 Ohm - 3 pcs
Jumper wires - 8 pcs
USB cable - 1 pcs
Power bank - 1 pcs
LEGO pieces for enclosure
Beads for decoration
Building the Electronics Circuit
Legs of RGB led are connected to PWM pins on Arduino UNO board through resistors.
The potentiometer sends values from 0 to 1023, which are then mapped into smooth transitions using code.

Building the Enclosure
I built a custom LEGO enclosure for this project from my rocket LEGO I have built before.
Image of the rocket is attached as well.
Adding "Crystals"
Colorful beads were added to act as crystal-like elements.
Result
The circuit is placed inside LEGO enclosure, and beads are scattered around.
The final version demonstrates a working RGB color mixer controlled by potentiometer.
