1Make a PCB
You can download PCB layout files here, and make them on your own or order them in a PCB manufacturer, for example JLCPCB.COM.

2Solder everything
See schematic to know where to solder which components. Don't forget about LEDs polarity. You don't have to solder optical detector, I wouldn't use it in this project, but I plan to update it int the future and make it spin with a motor.

3Upload a code
To upload a program we have to use USBasp programmer. We also need to add Atmega8 bootloader to Arduino IDE, you can find it here. Use the code provided below, to upload choose sketch -> upload with programmer.

4Enjoy your project!
The best way to see effect of this project is to set up your camera for a long exposure, and then moving POV display in front of the camera. Try to adjust exposure time to get better phots. I also want to make a upgrade to this project and make a 3D printed case for it and add a motor to make it spin. Thanks for reading I hope this short explanation of this project help you with making it. Don't forget to leave your questions in the comments. You can also follow me on my social media:
