Dutchman Brings Glow to Night-Driving
Daan Roosengaarde believes his 'Smart Highway' project spells the end for traditional road lighting. The Dutch designer says his 'glowing lanes' will allow road users to drive safely on highways at night without the need for street lamps. The lanes are created with photoluminescent paint coated on roads. The paint absorbs sunlight during daylight hours, and releases the energy at night, with enough power to glow in the dark for up to ten hours.
