enlighted® by Janet Hansen

Criss Angel

in 2014, Enlighted was commissioned to create this lighted jacket for use in the Criss Angel Mindfreak Live show in Las Vegas.

The base jacket is a distressed leather trenchcoat. We created stripes of rectangular cutouts on the shoulders, front, and sleeves, and made black organza windows in these areas.  Then, RGB LED pixels were mounted inside the coat, to be used as backlighting.

The lights can be animated in a variety of colors and effects, with a user-controlled switch mounted in the coat.

The clip below shows some of the animation patterns that are possible.
