A couple more cool LED displays

I spotted these two water-based LED projects recently and thought that they may be of interest.

    The first one is impressive, and he is flat out meeting his backers. I'm intrigued how he gets the water to rotate when leaving the top outlet, as the landing spot is quite small and it seems to be rectangular…

    Strange how things go in life.

     

    Was watching the movie "Now You See Me 2"  when suddenly in the magic shop in Macow there was an almost identical Reverse Rain sitting on the table, and one of the actors interacted with it.

    They also claim to use the same strobe effects in the sequence in London, but the link below suggests it wasn't possible on that scale ....

    There's a good talk about it here, along with a great breakdown of a Gator Aid video near the bottom.

    I also have found one interesting way that you can move water.

    At 2:33 into this one, he shows the outlet connected to a speaker cone, which is modulated.

    This would give a linear movement which matches the capture aperature in the Aquarius unit.

     

     

    Cheers
