Glow with the Show ears explained

Post by avengador1 » Wed Aug 01, 2012 3:33 pm

I saw this on Inside The Magic. It explains how the LED ears work.

I don't delve into products which need explaining. All I know about Glow Show Ears - they were very cute on Ktulu's daughters. On Ktulu...I laughed. ;)

Imagine the fun you could have with a hand controller with a directional lens on it. Wave your "light sabre" over the crowd, their ears do your bidding !

even easier. one one of those videos, they said each pair of ears has it's own serial number. which I assume it broadcasts, since there is no way they can add them to the system as they sell them. so you add a scan feature to your controller. or you just aim it toward a unit and scan it's serial number. this would be fun on the dark rides too. a independent comtroller would drive disney nuts. after a few "embarassing" episodes they will prolly encript the ears signals.
course, no one ever hacked pal mickey either.
