LED turns tables into game machines

While companies are making use of LED technology in such products as lamps and watches, it's good to see that some people are applying it to something that really counts: games.
Techie Diva reports that designer/inventor/technologist Moritz Waldemeyer has used LED lights and touchpads to transform ordinary tables into interactive game platforms that are on display at London's Rabih Hage Gallery: "The white table transforms itself into a ping-pong machine at the flick of a switch, while the roulette table (pictured) shows an illuminated map." We hope he'll turn his attention next to video poker.

I'd rather get out the laser pointer and play with the cat, oh wait, pretty much the same thing.

- There are actually quiet exciting applications for light for the PC. Outside of ambient light, the system from http://www.a-r-e.nl comes Event Alerts (any systray event can be mapped to a light event), Imaginary Color Landscapes (color based on position of mouse on screen), Real Time Emphatic Text to Color translation (emphatic context sensitive colors while you type anywhere under Windows), and I read more light features are in the works.
