projects
EMP Designs has worked on numerous special effects projects involving LED and lighting effects, motion control platforms and radio control pyrotechnic sequencers.
Many of these projects are confidential, but they include a ball of light for Guardians of the Galaxy, the motion control of the candy boat for Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, the barber’s chair in Sweeney Todd, and the precision motion control system that operated the tiny compass needle for The Golden Compass.
