Jul 14, 2013 at 10:38 comment added Anindo Ghosh @angelatlarge Here's one that somewhat captures the Tron disc effect - though it is discrete rather than a smooth transition. Look at the inner ring's lights.

Apr 28, 2013 at 11:25 comment added Anindo Ghosh See the last part of this answer, the PWM curve you want is y = x ^ 2.5. I can write it up into an answer to this question if you like.
Apr 28, 2013 at 10:52 comment added M. Choi I'll check out the visually linear increasing intensity ramp. I guess I couldn't find the words for it. Thanks Anindo.
Apr 28, 2013 at 10:23 comment added Anindo Ghosh Do you mean that all LEDs should light up together instantaneously (parallel them), they should light up in a visually linear increasing intensity ramp (I have an answer previously posted for that), or light up in sequence but with a smooth ramp-up profile for each consecutive one?
