Lighting

Color Kinetics has developed lights that are made from 3 colors of LEDs. The computer can control these lights to produce 1 million colors. The company has graciously loaned us 18 lights and 2 pieces of track for this workshop, but more track is needed. We have discovered 2 unused pieces in the lab, but it is still not enough.
