A modified version of the “Air diplay” adapted to be used in a bicycle using PIC12F629 microcontroller

Summary of A modified version of the “Air diplay” adapted to be used in a bicycle using PIC12F629 microcontroller


Anthony from Cumaná, Venezuela, created a "Persistence of Vision" (POV) display for bicycle wheels that shows fifteen Spanish messages. The project is based on a PIC12F629 microcontroller operating at 3 volts. The PCB layout includes resistors, red LEDs for better display performance, and a jumper below the microcontroller. The design is an adaptation of the "Air Display" for bicycle use, and the HEX file for programming the microcontroller is available for download.

Parts used in the Persistence of Vision Bicycle Display:

  • PIC12F629 microcontroller
  • Red LEDs
  • Resistors
  • Jumper wire
  • PCB (Printed Circuit Board)

Anthony from Cumaná, Venezuela, made his own “Persistence of vision” (POV) display, similar to my Air Display but it can be mounted on any bicycle wheels and it displays fifteen messages in Spanish.

Here is the PCB with each part of the project. It uses a 12F629, works with a voltage of 3Volts

This is the PCB top view to determine the location of each part. The yelow ones are the resistors, the red ones are the LEDs (works better with RED leds) and there is a jumper under the microcontroller PIC 12F629.
