ILDA's 2002 Awards
for Outstanding Laser Displays
Members
of the International Laser Display Association (ILDA) honored
the best and brightest in their industry with awards for outstanding
technological and artistic achievement during the association's
annual conference Nov. 24-26 in Orlando, Fla.
Companies
from America, Australia, Belgium, Germany and Italy received
the industry's equivalent of Hollywood's "Oscars" for
shows that included huge outdoor festivals, corporate productions,
theme park installations and special events. LOBO electronic
of Aalen, Germany, took the most awards of any company, garnering
seven awards, including first place for its "Cosmonautica"
beam and graphics show and another first place for its "Seven
Wonders" graphics-only show.
Lightspeed
Design Group of Bellevue, Wash., USA, challenged LOBO with a
total of five awards, including a first place for its "One
More Time" abstract show and another first place in the
ISP computer animation category.
Other shows that received awards
included a huge outdoor production by Belgium's Laser System
Europe for the Moscow 2002 Sports Games, a thrilling laser-lit
roller-coaster ride by Australia's Laservision Macro-Media, and
a computer-generated virtual laser host created by Lighting Systems
Design, Inc. of Orlando.
