Surround Light?

Surround Light Coming to Your PC on PC.IGN.Com describes a new technology from Color Kinetics that will allow gamers and home theater owners to experience "surround light," which will add all manner of lighting to one's surroundings to enhance the gameplay experience. The article quotes Dr. Ian Davis, CEO of Mad Doc Software, describing how easy the new feature was to implement in Star Trek: Armada II, and speaks enthusiastically about the impact of the effect. The article also describes how the system, which is composed of various LED-based lights scattered around the room, can be used in a home theater environment, and says that they're "seeing significant price decreases," on the cost of the system, which can range anywhere from $99 to $1,300, "depending on how much equipment you want to buy."
