Final project Video and slide.

With my project vibradrop i learned how to create something from scratch using relevant technologies available. The main aim here was to create a setup which can produce optical illusions with water, since it is always mesmerizing to watchwater flow. I have succeeded in creating the illusion. But still i have to make this process more interactive by making it a speaker which creates patterns of water with the music. And also for interface instead of using rotary encoder i used a switch . So in future i want to make a more user friendly interface.
