Now Hypnocube must face his greatest rival the Hypnotaoad!

One of my friends built this exact thing for a senior design project a few years ago. Wonder if he's selling them now...

One hundred and fifty bucks? For what?!

wait am i missing something $150 for some specially ordered leds

Why does the assembled cube cost $50 less then do it yourself kit?

Game Frame in 3D! Very cool

ALL HAIL THE HYPNO-CUBE!

You should try to find 5 square flat plastic convex Fresnel magnifying lenses to make a box cover to go over it. That would make it even more hypnotic. Imagine what it would do to a room with that sort of lens over it

I would have to build a plastic case around that, not very child proof otherwise! Looks cool!

All hail the Hypnocube!

SOL-der why do so many Americans say Sodder?

Very cool . Have fun in vegas.

Good job! I'm impressed with that thing. One advice. Turn off room lights so we could see the lights better Thanks

Oh, its very nice

Build an infinity mirror in cube form to put around it to make even more awesome.

Not sure if you take show and tell suggestions, but i thought you might like to show Metal Earth 3D laser cut models. They are made by a company called Fascinations, and are extremely detailed small laser cut metal models that don't require any soldering or glue, just some pliers. I have made a few and extremely enjoy it, there is even a Star Wars series of them. Very cheap too and I think people would quite like them!

Needs a 'Rubix Cube Mode' where it starts of as random colours and slowly rotates the LED colour pattern to simulate a completed brick! Then, someone needs to scale it down so it fit's into an actual Rubix Cube. Making it portable and rechargeable!

Could you put mirrors on two of the back sides and show us what that looks like? I think that would look even better... Also I think I would add a cover for the electronics.

thanks Norm

I've learnt a lesson today... As long as the silkscreen looks sexy enough, people will buy it, whatever the cost.

Now...you have to build an attractive base! Adam...?

I made my own hypno cube for like $5. I bought 100 super bright leds for like $3. Although it took like a month to get them imported from china. They are better quality and easier to use than the ones in the video. They have two leads. Positive and negative and have full RGB on their own.

ALL HAIL THE HYPNOCUBE!!!

Where are you guys staying at in Vegas? I live in Vegas and I would like to come say hi!

If you put frosted glass around that thing it would be awesome.

NICE!

I've actually been interested in buying an LED cube for a few years now, but my main issue is the animations. I would like it if the LEDs did visualization for audio beyond pre-programmed cycles, then you'd get more bang for your buck beyond a pretty lamp.

Lindsey Stirling is performing at CES! Want to be there!

I would love to see that synced up with audio somehow.

What camera did you use to record?

next time you film something like this, please turn the lights off and block the sunlight ;)

Nice

150 is a rip. I'm an engineer for the Navy, I have built something similar to this for for fun in about half a day with about 40 bucks. Even with shipping and a bit of extra for profit, a reasonable price is like 65$. Save yourself some money and do it yourself. That's the fun part anyways.

All hail the hypnocube

What language would you use to program something like this?

why is it less expensive to get it already assembled? was the caption wrong? 150 unmade, 100 made. ?

So the cool thing is that Kipkay already made this a few years ago so it's really nothing new. :D

I would like that but then like 20 times more leds so it will be some sort of screen.

Please please please where do I get that t-shirt???? I keep seeing Norm wearing it and it's great :)

Cool

All hail hypnocube

This is really cool! Nice not as much haha but you can probable figure out how to do it yourself

i feel a law suit coming.

This makes me think of a 3D GameFrame. Not sure how that would work, though.

The funny thing is a pre built one is cheaper than the Un built built one.

looks exactly like what kipkay was doing ages ago just more programming maybe

Tested you know they sell these on vat19.com right ?

There is a great Cube tutorial on KZfaq if you look at them. This would be a rip off at 1/2 that price.

Digikey sells RGB LEDS for $1.062 each if you buy 100 and $0.66 if you buy 1000 I dont know how much the other components costs. That should give people an idea if $150 is too much or not.

It's a good project, I can build it too... xD

Ooh yeah, $150. You know, for fifty bucks more I could get a 3DS. But nah, I'd rather blow all my money on 64 leds, some wire frame and an exposed board. Because at least the latter can be a centerpiece to put in my empty apartment for when no one comes over. Trite.

Whaaaat 150$ for 64 LED's and a few integrated circuits?

you can make a rubic cube out of that

filipino ka? OR American

I built mine for less than 20 bucks ;) !

Can get same effect with led christmas lights with multichange patterns ( well mire or less) and cost a fraction of that rip off price !

It reminds me of a robot brain.

So it's extremely expensive and has no use, a must have item if ever I saw one...

Answer: When it is ready.

$150 wtf the leds in that cost less than a $1 and you can buy an audino for under $30 even under $20 and people have made enough of them tht you can just download the base code for it

Brother built his for 70 bucks and it's 8x8x8.

8x8x8 led cube for $25 on Ebay

Yeah that thing seems way overpriced especially for that much work and it doesn't look that great finished. For that price I would expect it not to look like a prototype. Still, great job building it successfully!

I understand that you would buy the kit so that you can have fun and all but a $50 price difference between the kit and assembled? Seriously?

Why? Life is too short for this.

sorry but after many years this has to be my first comment..... why does solder loose the L in the USA? it is SOLD ER .. it is not SODER. slightly drunk and meh just venting.. just to add, love the chanel

Seriously? Or this is just a way of trolling premium members? ^_^

Kipkay allredy done this and iT is chaper

This looks kind of unimpressive on the camera, maybe it's because of the light. It would be cool if it was larger, maybe 10*10*10, but then you have 1000 LEDs haha.

oculus!!

I like you Norm, but as a Brit it's bad enough watching Americans misspell the English language, but why can't you at the very least pronounce it properly? In the USA, how in the hell does the word 'soldering' become 'soddering'. It's 'sold-err-ring'. If you sell an item, you haven't 'sodd' it have you, you've 'sold' it. Jesus!, you'll all be using the ancient, out of date Imperial standard weights and measures next....Oh! wait...

150$ for parts worth 15$??? Wow.

$150?? for blinking lights... Give me a $40 plasma lamp any day...

oh that looks like a nice build but not for $150. not many people have lots of money and lots of time on there hands so don't know who would buy this thing

$150? LMFAO, it's only leds, chips and some little wire! HOW IS IT 150$?!

150$ for few LEDs :DD LOL. A student can desing that in a couple of days..

150$?! That's way too much geez.

Or you could be a pre-made cube from Vat19.com for $50 bucks less

O___o

150 dollars for some crappy LED's ? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?

$150 Um... how about nooo.

it's expensive ;/

Not first

TURN THE LIGHTS OFF FFS!!!

$150 seems like a lot for something that doesn't look all that great.

About 50 bucks and some time will get you a better device and you learn to program.

>$150 HAHAHAHAHA no.

First

This guy is just the definition of cringe.

Looks cool, but... exposed motherboard... Do not like.

150 ?!?!?!??!?!? WTF it is worth 5 Dollar if u ask me. try arduino lol wow u tested guys know arduino though, i dont have to tell u that

Looks like come kind of shitty Kipkay project...

It looks f*ing lame!
