How do led infinity tunnels work?
BobA:
The look cool. Something mesmerizing about them when they have chasing lights. I notice that the 2 x 2 unit is only 2 inches thick. With framing etc that must mean that the mirror surfaces are only 1 to 1.5 inches apart. Another dimension that I needed to know to get the right effect.

Hmm - no kidding on the coolness. Darnnit now I'm imagining that giant one hanging on a wall - with green lights instead of white and a sign above it that says :"The Rabbit Hole" in matrix lettering :) Maybe some very very light transparencies hung inside of matrix code that descend the whole way down....
Are you planning on putting one on the front/side/top of your jukebox?
In that link that Kane posted (thanks Kane), the guy used a four inch width I believe (there's a little diagram - very handy).

I am looking at putting one on the front of the jukebox but I might have to experiment. If I had a double layer of lexan in front of the Monitor I could almost replace my bezel with mirrored film and have the monitor floating in the center of the infinity tunnel. Or maybe have it behind the reflective film so you only see the monitor when the screen is on and the infinity tunnel when the screen is off or in screen saver mode. Ideas Ideas and more Ideas.
