Aurora Fibre Optics Kit

The Fibre Optic Kit DIY-Aurora is a complete Do-It-Yourself package, containing 150 fibre optic strands, and a full colour LED light engine. Light is transmitted from an LED illuminator via the acrylic fibre optic strands to your ceiling (or other surface).

The LED light engine contains 6 RGB (full colour) LED sources, each cycling through the colours independently of the other sources and with different speeds. This independent cycling creates colour patterns that do not repeat, unlike traditional colour wheel-based kits. You can stare at the ceiling for hours, never seeing the same pattern twice.

The Fibre Optic Kit DIY - Aurora comes in two versions: DIY-Aurora 2, with 2m optical fibres, and the DIY-Aurora 4, with 4m fibres.
