Rockefeller Center’s Interactive LED Light Show

There is no doubt about it, LED lighting is blowing up in a big way. Even the Rockefeller Center in New York is in on the artistic lighting possibilities of LED’s, showcasing an interactive art space where viewers are tracked by individual cameras as they move across the space. The measurements of viewers’ movements are then translated into unique color and space patterns as the lights respond, employing 1,300 LED lights to create an ambient experience.

LED lights are everywhere now, and for good reason. They help the environment, save electricity, last longer than incandescent lights, and are much more easily programmed to do a variety of tasks. In fact, energy-saving LED lighting is up to 70% more efficient and often comes with 10 to 15 year warranties.

LED lights are employed in applications as diverse as replacements for aviation lighting, automotive lights, and even in traffic lights. The compact size of LED’s, their efficient bandwidth, switching speed, and extreme durability have allowed new text and video displays and sensors to be invented and used in superior communications technology. Infrared LED’s are also used in the remote controls for many electronics like televisions, DVD players, and other household appliances. Many of the LED’s made in the 1970s and 1980s are still in use today! The lifetime of a standard LED is, on average, 25,000 to 100,000 hours, but heat and current settings can extend or shorten this time significantly.

Lighting designers have finally embraced the new technology of LED’s, developing new forms of both indoor and outdoor lighting styles for the contemporary home or office. More traditional home decorators are often geared towards incandescent lights because of their historical presence in fixtures like chandeliers, pendants, wall sconces. But modern decorators are embracing the use of LED lights in designer fixtures, both because they are more practical than incandescent bulbs and also because of the curious irony of creating a “traditional” light fixture using a new, innovative medium. For example, LED technology has allowed Kenzan Tsutakawa-Chinn to design the contemporary light, Constellation Chandelier, which displays 364 three-millimeter LED’s attached to the tips of 91 copper tubes.
