Talented designer Daan Roosegaard from Holland came up with and brought to life a magical bike path that glows at night, helps night travelers not to go astray and is generally similar to Van Gogh's Starry Night painting. It was Van Gogh's painting that inspired the designers to create such a bike path.
2. A kilometer-long bike path, which was created using an rgb controller, as well as solar and glow-in-the-dark LEDs, is located in Brabant, the Dutch county where the artist Van Gogh was born and raised.
3. The swirling, luminous shapes on the surface of the bike path will help cyclists stay on track even when riding at night. Yes, and walking a couple in love along such a starry path is a real pleasure and romance.
4. The idea of this track is not new. Similar luminous paths have already appeared in the UK.
5. The idea of walking on the stars was sung not only by poets in their romantic poems and love songs, but also by the innovative British company Pro-Teq, which decided to embody the idea on UK park paths and call them Star Trek.
6. Pro-Teq bike paths work on the principle of absorbing energy from ultraviolet radiation and further glowing. At night, this results in light path lighting that helps pedestrians and cyclists stay on track.
7. In both cases, this technology helps to save energy and time. Lighting the walkway with LEDs does not require a huge number of lights, and the installation process is much faster.
8. For example, installing LEDs on a 140m walkway in Cambridge took only 4 hours. In the Netherlands, the cycle path is powered not only by solar energy, but also by LEDs, but even in this case, there is a huge saving in energy and installation time.
