progress update 2

With the installation taking place on campus in the green space we needed a way to be able to move the lights in and out with easy and effortlessly. We chose to use 2x4 wood as the basis of how we will do that. sitting the 2x4s on top of the metal railing in the green screen room allowed us to take it on and off without having to re-tie everything every time we go in. We currently have most of the lights up with the corsponding servo motors as well as the static pressure sensors whats left now is the calibration to get it all working

** a change we did to the lights was cover all sides to block off any god rays that the acrylic would create on the gound making the effect less distracting and more shimmer light.

progress updates

the beginning of the installation has began, majority of the 8 lights are finished. Some of the problems we are currently trying to address the sound issue from th servo motors. We are using foam boxes to insulate the servo motos to dampen the noise. The box works out pretty well but it doesn't complete eliminate the sound. As for the rest of the installation, the sensors for the lights are in progress and we have to use a lighter colored material for the floor to help show the shimmer lines better as dark material do not work well with the reflection of the lights.
