The customizable and modular <strong>24 V<\/strong> electrified track takes shape on the wall, powering small light-cars attached magnetically to create <strong>free<\/strong> <strong>and<\/strong> <strong>ever-changing<\/strong> <strong>compositions<\/strong>. The track can be configured freely up to a maximum length of <strong>5 metres<\/strong> through three different module shapes in textured matt black polyethylene that can be assembled to create endless routes: essential lines, curves, detours and unexpected trajectories.<\/p>\n<p>Up to <strong>eight light-cars<\/strong> can be magnetically attached and powered along the track, ready to be moved at any time: mobile light sources become accents of light that can be positioned and repositioned with ease. The light-cars feature an adjustable head that allows the light beam to be directed exactly where needed. They are available in four light colours (white, red, green and blue), enabling the <strong>creation<\/strong> <strong>of<\/strong> <strong>lighting<\/strong> <strong>atmospheres<\/strong> <strong>and<\/strong> <strong>chromatic<\/strong> <strong>compositions<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Light becomes play in this intuitive and evolving system, where every configuration is an invitation to experiment. <strong>Ready<\/strong> <strong>to<\/strong> <strong>play.<\/strong> <strong>Ready<\/strong> <strong>to<\/strong> <strong>light.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Racing track KIT consisting of <strong>12 modules<\/strong> in three different shapes.<\/p>\n<p>24 V DC \u2013 <strong>2 W<\/strong> light-cars (white, red, green and blue).<\/p>\n<p>Required driver not included and available separately.<\/p>\n<p class=\"footer\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.davidegroppi.com\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Davide Groppi<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RACE OF LIGHTS, where light runs<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":27,"featured_media":43568,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[1703,2004],"class_list":["post-43572","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-c-d-t-en","tag-design-lighting-en","tag-davide-groppi-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.3 -
