Maybe thats from diggnation? :P - MikeCampo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Wow some of you are being really crude tonight ^^
- bryan8m, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3"Why not just use a LCD display and save water?"
Maybe the water is recycled? - outerspaceapple, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2^^^ now there is a good idea. except, in matrix don't some streams of text fall faster then others? incidentally, you couldn't do.. text very well either.
- Whomever, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2If the images fall down the display, this is the perfect place for the matrix screensaver.
- eN1X, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2That is really pointless. And really stupid.
- tuartboy, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4^^ anonymity makes *****
- t0ny, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I had that same idea but with bubbles.
- hypnotiq, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2well we had the /. effect on them though :) they pulled the videos offline and the site is being redirected. nice digg, cool idea. love to see something like this in person.
if you click the image it redirects to a page that shows how it works. it's real. - brutan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I saw this on display at the 2005 Detroit Auto Show. Jeep had a large display setup, close to 40 feet tall. As the water fell down off a fake waterfall set you could clearly see the Jeep logo, moving waves, and other images falling in the water. It was pretty cool, unfortunately extremely hard, if not impossible, to capture with a camera.
- 1337geek, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2ok, so if it is fake, then its lame, so as far as i can tell, it is lame.
- dan1980, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I wonder if it can emulate running water? :-)
- billizm, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1It would be possible if it were a falling image, being replicated over and over again, or just once, but just once, the image would fall and be gone in a second or two. Neat idea, though.
- gohoos, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I saw this technology on a tv report of an auto show a few years ago. It was new back then - they were using this technique for scrolling word banners and pictures in waterfalls of droplets. In motion it was eye-catching, except that water falls too fast to make a great display - a problem you can't do anything about without leaving earth.
- fugitivALiEN, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1the videos are all offline, anyone got a file mirror?
- abbtech, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Any other links to the video, I want to this thing in action!!!
- IceKnight, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1i want to know how it works. someone take me to the museum
- kingfoot, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Thats sweet
- sgtpepper, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2Why not just use a LCD display and save water?
- tikibangout, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Holy *****, *dreams of Water Display playing video*. That will be nuts.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Sweet, but useless?
- DardanAeneas, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2Why does it say "bitfall simulation:" on the main site's page right before the picture? Is this a real picture of a bitfall in action, or a mock-up photoshop preview?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2does it have a resolution of 1280x1024 flames? :)
- RpgActioN, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1Maybe because bitfall is simulating the picture... With water...
- noahbradley, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1...This is a dupe. Except when I dugg it, it never reached the front page. Heck, it didn't get anywhere. ;)
- screwloose45, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1ghey
- NINJ4, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1Real as far as I can make out..
