Other Hardware LEDs and Multiplexing

Hello everyone,

So going to start off by saying that I know very little about arduino and code. After searching youtube and google I cant find anyone that did something like what im trying to achieve so im here now asking for someone to point me in the correct direction.

At my work we are building a Giant Battleship game. (I meant giant. Its 12feet long and 6feet tall.) for the panel that looks like a radar in the battleship game we had the idea of making it led lite and trying to make the leds rotate so it looks like a radar. I figured I would just have strips of leds going from the center out. Then have one strip turn on and off and then go to the next and would continue like that.

After searching online I was not able to find something that could help me get this. I dont know if im maybe using the wrong words but if someone could point me in the correct direction that would be great.

Thanks

Look at a Larson Scanner effect, this is the same thing only with a single LED laid in a line. Replace the single LED with strips arranges in a circle.
You will need a get to control the strips. Should be simple.
