Wave or rippling lighting.

[Payden Pringle]

I'm not sure if this is a good spot for it in the forums, but I have a question.

Does anyone know of a way, or a type of light that pulses, but in a wave form. It's hard to describe what I'm talking about without a specific word, which I lack.

---------------------------

Imagine that that is the tube or whatever this type of light would be in the form of.

Now, imagine that the light starts at one end, and flows to the other, like this.

o--------------------------

-o-------------------------

And so on...

--------------------------o

And the position behind the start of the light slowly dims as the light travels, creating a tail effect to the light. Like a wisp or something.

Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Or am I just crazy?

For some reason, when I think of what I'm talking about, I imagine Star Trek... And the lights in some areas of the ship or on visors (possibly another scifi show from back in the day).

Like this, only it goes to one end, then restarts at the point it began at.

By light do you mean a lighting strip that can do that ? I haven't heard of one but it's interesting to check :/
