Abstract

See full text

A system for performing a shrinking room illusion includes a first group of perforated optics panels defining a first interior space. First lighting is configured to illuminate the first group of perforated optics panels from the first interior space. The system also includes a second group of panels defining a second interior space, wherein the first group of perforated optics panels are nested within the second interior space. Second lighting is configured to illuminate the second group of panels from within the second interior space and positioned beyond the first interior space. A controller of the system is configured to control the first lighting and the second lighting to transition between illuminating the first group of perforated optics panels and illuminating the second group of panels such that a visual illusion of transitioning between the first interior space and the second interior space is provided.
