LED Display Signs Are On The Up
|
||||||||||
LED display signs are effective and inspirational. With LED displays pack an information punch or imprint a logo like never before. 3D uses limited space, and wearable makes LEDs ubiquitous. LED signs can show everything from letters to complex spatial matrices.
Just imagine what will be possible with LED display if this stuff is in experimental stage. Catch the forward looking and the uplifting.
3D Display
Guess cube is essential in limited 3D displays. Update: the cuba-tron has now been constucted in round version (Probably more so for the Burning Man festival theme mand its creative audience.)
Every step is one step closer to 3D television - you just feel it. And how about a wearable television a'la Teletubbies. Check out the Lumalight video at the top. Let your imagination soar.

| Simple
enough LED display sign, yet oh so ingenous. Philips came out with this
Lumalight range, which is the first wearable genenation of dynamic LED
signs. Other interesting concept of note in this family is LED curtain. |

| A LED display
sign from these letters run across the cube: "C-E-N-T[???]
O-F
W-H-A-T I H-A-V-E S-E-E-N."
What you see is actually 4D - a 3D message running. Find more of this cool LED display stuff at LED-art: http://www.led-art.nl/objecten.html |

Now onto more complex display ...
Suppose you
contrast some intricate fluid
motion and the cube. All seen in space of course. (You could use some
constant illumination of the strong edges to put the flux in context.)
That would be inspirative stuff.
This cool LED display
project from my
favorites is called
the CubatronTM
Propeller. It
was developed by Mark Lottor
for Network Wizard and one version presented at the Burning Man
Festival. It is now
a permanent art piece in a hotel in Dallas, Texas. The only thing is
that it's now in a wall cavity so viewers can't appreciate it enough
because it is not placed in
space so you'd walk around and take in the full view. So if you are a
decorator or an architainer wanting to install LED display stuff,
please
take note. These are spatial beasts.Because if you want to think outside the box, (with fun LEDs it's a must) it is enough to take one look and be inspired. I was. Here is the web home of the cubatron LED display:

And finally 2D to 3D ...
Perhaps you could try 3-4 rows of flashing LEDs at first and let me know how you go. I'd appreciate a message, pics and perhaps some vids if you had a go.
