In the Pittsburgh suburb of Churchill, Westighouse used to have a research facility along Rt.276. Evry Chrstmas tey would set up a tree which was lit with a couple of hundred independently addressable blue lights. These lights would create quite a few random, but coherent patterns similar to the patterns in the tree shown in your video.

I contacted Westinghouse years ago to see if they wanted to go commercial with the tree lighting. They told me that it had been designed and created as a personal exercize by an enineer who was then reired. They said that, as far as they were concerned the design was the property of that retired engineer. I managed to track him down to see if he wanted to commercialize his design and he claimed it belonged to Westinghouse. After a few back and forths between him and Westinghouse I finally bcame conviced that neither was interested in making the tree publiclly available. All he would tell me about the design was that it made extenive use of CMOS technology.

Your RGB tree lighting is a quantum leap above what Wetinghouse had with their single color incandescent version and as soon as it becomes available I’ll be one of the first customers.

I want to have…..

PS So awesome tree
