Basically what it is is a load of binary counters line up so that in 16 spark cycles you can make any possible combination. The order of inputs from top to bottom is: (1--4, 1) -- (1--4, 8), (5--8, 8) -- (5--8, 1)

My concept: id:1839868 (it can fill as fast as aray can fire but it cant make empty lines, but it has max resolution in a 30x30 square)

I used feynmans mod, but I'm not sure if that is the reason I was able to make them..

how do you make large signs

better idea: use filt then you will get 29 pixels for one signal

more like a binary screen

@groudon & zaccybot2 Yeah, CRAY is indeed quite helpful. Plus indeed 60 Hz is going to be the primary future for TPT computing as seen with my 60 Hz high capacity memory that came up on FP some days ago. For example this is my unfinished design for programming a 100 by 120 pixel screen at 60 Hz, 2 rows per frame. id:1719115. Implements subframe timing to be able to isolate each of those 24 bit writing sections.

oho man I can't wait for the completely 60hz revolution

oldmud0: I know this is ridiculous but I don't know of how to really implement this sort of thing, it was just an idea I had one night so to make sure I didn't forget it - I thought it was a cool idea - I just made this, I never expected it to get on fp

@geekiboy2000: spark all of the inputs and it controls individual sets of 4 pixels, ignore the top input, it is hugely broken..
