Computer Science Students Light up Theophilus Tower

The University of Idaho College of Engineering’s student chapter of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) present the TowerLights Extravaganza after the homecoming fireworks. All of the hardware and software for the extravaganza was designed and built by ACM members.

To create the 30-minute light show, which is set to a music soundtrack, ACM students manipulate high-powered LEDs light panels placed in the south facing windows of the Theophilus Tower.

The first TowerLights show was presented in 2010, when a group of computer science graduate students used regular incandescent light bulbs, ran wires down the halls to a laptop on each floor, and coordinated everything using a master laptop that communicated with the other laptops. After 6 years, the technology has improved and the light show is visually spectacular. The ACM students now control the colored light panels with a master controller in the basement.

The date for this fall will be posted as soon as it has been decided.
