Description
With a frame consisting of over 1,700 LEGO pieces and with the magic of a color-sequencing microchip wired to powerful LED spotlights, Iβve built a traffic light that actually cycles through three colors! The LEGO structure serves as a frame to house the spotlights and internal wires, whilst the outside lights are made with transparent dots and Technic bricks, in the same fashion as my mosaic Super Mario Bros. lamps.
To build your own, check out my tutorial on Instructables β and be sure to vote on it for the Make it Glow contest!

Yes -- I've used a model railroad color sequencer that has variable speeds. The red and green are approximately one minute each, and the yellow light is just a few seconds.

Meanwhile, traffic associations are wondering why aren't we funding this?
