Cloud
T5, London Heathrow
- Troika’s five metre digital sculpture in the British Airways luxury lounge atrium at Heathrow’s Terminal 5
- Evocative of old-fashioned travel information boards, 4638 flip-dots cover the surface, switching between black and silver
- The LPC X easily accommodates the required control capacity and triggering interaction
- Pharos Designer’s pixel mapping and media effects were used for fluid and dramatic programming
- The LPC X’s rugged, solid-state design ideally suited to being embedded within the sculpture itself
- Drivers for the mechanical switching were pre-designed to receive RS232 serial data rather than DMX so Pharos implemented the custom control protocol
