SENSOR VALLEY Interactive hugging pillars

Sensor Valley by artist Daan Roosegaarde is Europe's largest interactive sensor artwork of pillars that breath light and sound in response to people. The local citizens in Assen (NL) call them 'knuffelpilaren' (hugging pillars) as they interact with human motion and touch. The city of Assen has a longstanding history with sensor technology scanning the universe. Embraced as their new cultural icon, Sensor Valley enhances local social interactions; creating a tactile landscape of people, city and light.
