Hacskmith Industries Bat Signal
Hacksmith Industries is back at it again, and their latest project is a fully-functional Bat Signal that fits in the bed of a pickup truck. This project wasn’t as easy as you may think, since light from a normal spotlight can’t just project an image into the sky. That’s right, if you simply attempt to adhere a Bat symbol onto the glass or plastic of a spotlight, it will not project because it’s missing the lens to do so.



To make everything work like you see in the movies, they had to use a reversed logo placed in front of the LEDs, toward the back of the Bat-signal, and then added a large focusing lens up front to actually project the image into the sky. This custom spotlight consists of four large LEDs that are so powerful an industrial water chiller is needed to keep them cool, all connected to a gas-powered generator.
