Development notes    Design of a world map from stainless steel on a base of anodised aluminium; construction of the fibre optics and the TFT display.
More information    Each fibre has a diameter of 0.7 mm. A "sparkle wheel" in the projector variates the luminance of the light spots in pseudo-random order, creating a vibrant effect. The TFT display in the lower right of the world map gives a (non-interactive) presentation of the company.
