Amazing Interactive Surfaces

Tags: — 1:32pm


Talk about sensory overload! A company called Lightspace has created an amazing LED powered interactive lighting system that looks mighty fun.

Lightspace is a revolutionary entertainment system that combines the latest lighting and interactive technologies to produce a recreational experience that will provide hours of fun to children and adults of all ages. The system is capable of storing and running a potentially limitless variety of interactive programs and can be used by any number of participants simultaneously. Lightspace creates an engaging experience that will draw young children, teenagers and adults. Lightspace provides significant return on investment by generating the repeat-customer business so critical for family entertainment center growth and profitability.

This looks awesome, I can think of a number of ways this could add value in a club or a restaurant environment. It could be part of the dance floor, and also be part of the tables and walls - you could allow people to order using the interactive visual interface. I think it would be great fun for a certain type of techno-crowd. We are used to interacting with interfaces - and this one looks extremely fun!

The Lightspaceâ„¢ system is comprised of programmable LED lit tiles that are assembled together to form a floor of any size or shape. At the heart of the Club Scene product is the Lightspaceâ„¢ Management System (LMS). The LMS provides DJs and VJs complete control over the floor so that they can effectively integrate it into their current routine or create a totally new immersive experience.

Why I blog this? I am very interested in interactive display technology, and this is one of the best examines I have seen. I would even consider something like this in my house, so I could design personalized visuals to go with the music I am producing.
