Colors are assigned to tiles based
on the Bayer mosaic pattern (Created by Bryce Bayer for Kodak)
used in digital cameras. The idea behind using this pattern
is not to create a photo quality image on the video screen,
but to allow the possibility of creating an image of true colors
by merging colors of Red, Green, and Blue. See the Bayer setup
below. |

Twice as many Greens as Reds or Blues because Green carries
luminance information that the human eye uses to see finer details |

All active tiles will be velocity sensitive and will change
in color intensity based on the velocity value when stepped
on by the user |
|
Velocity sensitive tiles:
low velocity = light colored tile
High velocity = vibrant colored tile
|
|
|
|
|
|
:: |
The Red, Green, and Blue intensity values will vary depending
on the velocity of each step |
:: |
Tiles will stay lit as long as in the 'On' state - being
stepped on.
