[NetBehaviour] Trap Light

[Olga]

This is another really nice project working with the idea of energy
autonomy:

*Trap Light by Mike Thompson & Gionata Gatto*
Trap Light proposes a radical new approach to lighting design. By utilising
photoluminescent pigments to capture escaping light, Trap Light converts
waste energy back into visible light.

Photoluminesence is a process in which energy absorbed by a substance is
gradually released as light. Using the Murano glass blowing technique, the
designers were able to embed photoluminescent pigments into the glass body
of the lamp. Through this process, Trap Light becomes both shade and light
source, emitting, absorbing, and re-emitting light. 30 minutes ‘charge’ of
recycled light from a traditional incandescent or LED light bulb provides up
to 8 hours of ambient lighting.
