From go‑kart tracks to storefronts, learn how to design lighting that sells, not just shines.
🔥 Topics Covered:
✅ Chaser/tracer basics and marquee aesthetics.
✅ Controllers, patterns, and timing for motion.
✅ LED options, color temps, dimming, and maintenance.
✅ Practical installs (entertainment, retail, attractions).
✅ Tips for layout, spacing, and customer hand‑holding.
📣 Retro motion sells—learn how to spec, program, and deploy it the smart way.
