Electroluminescence Design

Artist and designer Rachel Wingfield showcases some innovative uses for electroluminescence display technology at her website loop.pH.

'Digital Dawn', blinds that change luminosity in response to changes in ambient light.

'Temporal Light', tiles that that light up as you walk by.

Electroluminescence is an electrical phenomenon where a material emits light when an electric current is passed through it.
