For the LED I selected a NeoPixel LED Strip (8-led) that I bought at a Swedish retail store () I started this project with Raspberry Pi, but decided I should go with the Arduino Uno, both to reduce size, and make it more stable and portable.

The basic idea in this project is to replicate the feeling of the KITT scanner using traditional LEDs and some controller. When the lamps was scanning, it created a trailing effect. The original lamps was halogen lamps, and had an after glow (light decay). The idea of the KITT scanner was to provide a feeling that the car had a external sensor. The original KITT scanner had 8 halogen lamps placed in a V-shaped structure on the front of Knight Industries Two Thousand, which was a 1982 Pontiac Trans Am. The scanner is also KITT's most vulnerable area." Occasionally, the bar could pulse in different patterns and sweep rapidly or very slowly. The scanner could see in all visual wavelengths as well as X-ray and infrared. The device is a fibre-optic array of electronic eyes. "Anamorphic Equalizer - KITT's most apparent feature was his front scan bar called the Anamorphic Equalizer.

The KITT scanner is sometimes also called "Larson scanner effect".

I made several software implementations, but never took the time to actually make a realistic hardware implementation out of it. It was a dream for me to actually implement this. Something that since childhood have fascinated me, is Knight Rider and the KITT scanner.
