Continuing the light theme, what is this, and what does it do?

mmm… must be something you can hold in your hands 0-)
And the lights´ disposition look like they meassure/indicate something maybe about the device´s state.
mmm… *thinking*
ps: where´s the rest of the guessing team!?

Fireworked hipothetic reconstruction:
I still dunno what may be, but perhaps this helps…
Or misleads? 0-)
ps. IVO! happy to see ya girl! |-)

"You got the jump on L’Inspecteur (he’s probably sleeping en France right now….)"
Indeed! I´ve made a deal with him: "This time I make the reconstruction, and you make the definite guessing." 0-) The only problem is that he doesn´t know yet…
Thx, Ivo! (again happy to c u!) |-)

Hi everybody,
I wasn’t even sleeping, just trying to finish reading a book 🙁 Hard stuff… but I would like to make a review.
Dreamed about UFO formations trying to attack some new kind of Not So Dark and Not So Star structure.
Then about bright candies trying to escape and I/O status indicators of my future G5 cluster or a new kind of dominos…Just before visiting again, I prepared this view.
Two rows, three kinds of ???? (by colors yellow (1), light blue [4] and white [3])
Three status, indicated as green, orange and red. The orange one may be the coincidence of green and red. Well, that would make four status with the off (no light) one. (gray dots)The black part seems to be in movement, somehow blurred at the distal edge. As the lights don’t show the same, it may be just a flash.
The "aerial" view make me think about a double array of detectors capturing signals to be combined in fine to produce the output.Now, I’ll have some coffee 🙂

Bingo iv0! Another strong showing from the international team!
It is a finger scanner, but not the finger print in the classic sense…. but the deep tissue "finger print".
It shines light of various frequencies and measures the reflections. OldCola is right that it has “a double array of detectors capturing signals.” Here you see the light. The detectors are in the dark rows.
Each person has different vasculature within the finger, and that serves as a more accurate biometric read than a fingerprint. (You also can’t use a dead finger to spoof the system 😉
It came out of research on non-invasive blood glucose monitoring for diabetics. They found that they could measure many other things too. Here is a picture of the skin.

I kneeeewwwwwwwww Iv0 was in track with the fingerprint scanning. Felicitations!!!
And Oldc, happy to see you around too! I was missing you!
ps.your reconstruction is nicer than mine =(
pss. Non-invasive glucose monitors can be a true breakthrough for diabetics.

Mon dieu! Now it is I who am speechless!!!
Inspecteur Cola, salut! 😀 and great job on the technical mumbo jumbo. (that is SO not my specialty)
Steve: this was a really cool puzzle! More More! 😀
Alieness: Look! Inspecteur was having a dream about you! Or did you arrange a little abduction and hypnotize him so that he would think it was all a dream? (don’t worry, I won’t tell…)

OldCola: you are in motion. You are hurtling through space and have a shifted referential frame. Hence, you see motion in all of my photos! Try flicking your head to the left and life will snap into focus for a moment….
Or, perhaps, I am just a poor photgrapher, never bothering to use a tripod or arrange for better lighting for my macro zoom shots (creating a bit of digital stutter if you will…).
In this case, I was giving the demo computer the finger…. and I thought it spawned such a colorful display that I should try to capture the moment (which is fleeting, by the way).

"Uhhh, I like it like that,
she working that back,
I don’t know how to act,
Slow motion for me, slow motion for me,
Slow motion for me, move in slow motion for me…"
