Luminglas is an interactive, kinetic lighting display that combines the long life and vibrant colors used in neon with the animation and interactivity of a plasma globe - all sealed into a customizable plate glass display.

Luminglas can be made in virtually any shape. Colors include: blue, red, green, magenta, white, or a mixture of any of these. Sizes range up to 24” by 24” square, and 42” round (larger displays are possible but typically are made up of pieces tiled together). The display is powered by a low-voltage power supply that runs off of a UL-listed 12V wall transformer. The speed of motion of the display is fully adjustable and can be sound-interactive via a built-in microphone.

Luminglas has found applications in stores, museums, trade shows, nightclubs, commercial and home interiors, and theatre and movie sets such as in the feature film Star Trek: First Contact and the television program Star Trek: Voyager.

Shown on the left is an example of Luminglas placed as a bar-top surface. It is completely safe to touch, and sealed to resist water spills.

We recommend having glass tops installed over the Luminglas

FAQs

1. How is a Luminglas panel made? How does it work?
Three glass plates are laminated together in a computer-controlled kiln. The middle layer of the glass sandwich has a portion of its center removed (like a donut hole) and the resulting space is filled with glass beads (usually about the size of a BB) coated with a chemical called a phosphor. The phosphor is what provides the color for the gas discharge. After fusing the plates together, an electrode is sealed onto the back and the air is evacuated and a fill gas is put in. The gas, when energized with a high voltage, high-frequency power supply, gives off visible and invisible energy. The invisible ultraviolet light activates the chemical phosphors on the beads. The electric filaments of light move between the beads randomly. They move around because the power supply is turning on and off very fast, effectively restarting and resetting the pattern each time. The filaments react to an external human touch because when one touches the panel, the body becomes an electrical ground for the filament to move towards.

2. What sizes and shapes of Luminglas are available?
If the shape can be drawn it probably can be made. Shapes like lightning bolts, letters, outlines of logos, have been made. The size limitation is only the size that is reasonable to handle and that can be fused in existing production furnaces. The larger the shape, the longer it takes to heat up and cool the glass. Shipping becomes very expensive beyond certain sizes, as does the tooling used to make large plates. Also, as plates get bigger they are harder to keep from warping at the 1400F temperatures inside the furnace. For really large areas, surfaces can be tiled together with smaller pieces. At the San Francisco Airport, the United terminal has a large wall made up of small square panels. The pieces can be cut to any shape that would fit together. The sandwiched sheets of glass are typically flat, but can be intentionally curved for desired effects. Shapes such as domes, curved panels, bowls, etc. can be made, let your creativity go wild.

Note: Each Luminglas sculpture comes with a power supply.

One power supply model works with all Luminglas units. Available with automated flashing pattern or ability to synchronize to music (live or recorded).
