Light Drum: A custom-built light drum is responds to signals from a micro-controller which translates collected sensor data to color and intensity values of a 2D grid of addressable RGBW LEDs.

An array of six custom built Addressable LED drums responsively illuminate an undulating landscape of acrylic profiles. The light colours and intensities are driven by the real-time data collected from the network of installed sensors along the bridge.
