Footprints of a pedestrian remain visible for about a minute after crossing this interactive lightfloor by TAL of Belgium. The weight of someone walking across the floor displaces some or most of the fluid inside the top layer, leaving ‘lightprints’ where ever feet touch the surface.

A Lightfader floor consists of a modular system of tiles. Each one measures 1000x1000x75mm and weighs 30kg. The top layer is made of strong and scratch resistant material. The tiles can hold up 250kg per square meter.

Lightfader, designed by Rogier Sterk, can be applied in interior situations, in both private and public environments.
