Academy Award for virtual lighting tech developers
Posted by lichtling | Filed under Allgemein
“Light Stage is a special effects system for films that records how people and objects look when lit from every possible direction. That way, virtual versions of actors can be accurately “lit” to perfectly match the background set. You’ve probably seen the magic of Light Stage (and not realized it) in fils like Spider-Man 2, Peter Jackson’s King Kong, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, and many other films.”

Lightblade Umbrella
Posted by lichtling | Filed under Allgemein
“When the weather’s been corrupted by the dark side (as it often is on this sunny isle of ours) what better way to keep yourself dry than with the Lightblade Umbrella? At first glance it looks just like any other ordinary umbrella, but one click of the button on the handle will illuminate the shaft in a bright flash of light that’s sure to scare off those evil pith helmet wearing bad guys, just waiting to pounce in the rain. Or it might just make you look super cool on your commute to work. Stand out and be noticed the next time it rains and make your way to the office Sci-Fi style.”

Christmas Truck with 3000 Lights
Posted by lichtling | Filed under Allgemein
“Twenty-five years ago, Kris Marshall of Iowa draped a strand of Christmas lights across his pickup truck. Now, eight incarnations later, the Christmas Truck has 3,000lights. Matt Hardigree writes for Jalopnik:
It’s amazingly nontechnical, it’s literally just lights taped to a truck. According to Marshall “It’s not very scientific, it’s a hideous site in the daylight, there’s black tape and wires in the daytime.” But at night it’s amazing. Marshall has used eight trucks and added dozens of strand since, though it’s always a 2WD Chevy/GMC with a regular cab and eight-foot truck bed “the way a truck ought to look.”
By his own estimate there are 50-to-70 strings with a mixture of 50 and 100 lights each, making a conservative estimate of 3,000 lights. There are no LEDs, just the cheap $0.89 strings, though he’d like to add some to take pressure off the taxed generator.”
