Each small triangle is fully isolated from its neighbors by reflective separation panels that prevent bleeding of light between triangles, allowing complete control of light color and patterns in the Ball. The large triangles are flanked by “wings”—linear strips of white LUXEON Rebel LEDs that, when the large triangles are joined, turn into bold, light or dark outlines, or can be programmed to sparkle or “race”. In fact, each of the 9,576 LUXEON LEDs is individually addressed and controlled, with the result that the Ball can produce billions of different lighting effects. The LUXEON lighting design created an opportunity for an equally creative optical design. Waterford’s unique, triangular lens crystal is “double cut” (cut on both sides) and “finely cut”, with small facets spaced closely together. The detailed design and careful arrangement of the crystal and the Luxeon LEDs gives the crystals the ability to maximize both color blending and light refraction. The new Times Square Ball is truly a jewel in the sky. “What is most striking to me is how beautifully the tiny LEDs refracted through the Waterford crystals. They just sparkle and dance in a whole new way! The older incandes- cent technology created a big, uniform light surface, but could not create the life and brilliance we have achieved with the LUXEON LEDs.” – Jeffrey Straus President of Countdown Entertainment Results “What is most striking to me is how beautifully the tiny LEDs refract through the Waterford crystals,’ says Jeff Straus. “They just sparkle and dance in a whole new way! The older incandescent technology created a big, uniform light surface, but could not create the life and brilliance we have achieved with the LUXEON LEDs.” The sustainability of high-power Luxeon LEDs is an important message for the 21st Century. The new ball can provide more light using less power than its predecessor, without the use of toxic substances such as lead or mercury. The light given off by the 40W color incandescent bulbs in the older Ball can now be created using just 1-2 watts in the new Ball. This, too, looks forward to a future in which technology is used to create a more sustainable society. “Times Square has always been an arena where the latest and greatest cutting-edge technology is unveiled and show- cased. It’s also a neighborhood that’s rich in tradition—from Broadway to Tin Pan Alley to Restaurant Row,” said Tim Tompkins, President of the Times Square Alliance, “the re-invented New Year’s Eve Ball reflects the spirit of Times Square. It’s that same spirit of renewal and new beginnings that brings people here from across the globe, in person or in spirit while watching from home, on New Year’s Eve every year.” Waterford Crystal created an exclusive “Let There Be Light” design for the crystal triangles on the new Ball. Designed and crafted by Waterford artisans in Ireland, “Let There Be Light” features a dramatically stylized, radiating sunburst on each of the 672 crystal triangles. Due to the new design and technical innovations, this represents an increase of 168 crystal trian- gles from last year’s Ball. And, for the first time, the crystal triangles will feature cutting on both sides. The double cutting maximizes the light refraction within the crystal triangles. “Waterford Crystal is once again extremely proud to join our Times Square part- ners, Countdown Entertainment and the Times Square Alliance, as an integral part one of the world’s |
