Fake Window Reproduces Sunlight From Any Location On Earth

Victorious Secret

Yea, I could use this. A lot of this. 

 

I've always wanted to enjoy coastal sunset lighting in the evening, but I can't since I basically live in the Canadian Arctic where winter is always coming. Scratch that, winter never left, so it can't be coming. But this has cool practical applications for indoor lighting, subways and what not. 

 

 

 

According to its Italy-based creators, CoeLux uses complex optics to mimic the way the sun refracts through standard glass in particular situations. Using a full-spectrum LED lighting system that can emulate sunlight, CoeLux installations place a light source behind a special blue-tinted pane that recreates the Rayleigh scatteringthat occurs when light travels through the Earth’s atmosphere. On top of this, the light is also refracted at an angle to complete the impression that it’s coming from outside, rather than the ceiling. CoeLux comes in three options: CoeLux60 offers a tight 60 degree angle often found in hot locations near the equator, CoeLux45 reflects the 45-degree balanced sunlight from the Mediterranean, and CoeLux30 provides a softer, warm light common in Scandinavia.

I think I read about this a month ago, or at least something similar. But I fucking want them. Make one where it will make light and have it warm or cool the air when you open it... Then that would be cool.

No, like a light bulb, but a dark bulb that projects darkness. Not a gigantic opaque material.
