The floor can display different patterns and flash under computer control. The sides and bottoms are made reflective and the top diffuses the light to give an even colour. The floors are typically constructed of solid sided square cells and tiled with a toughened glass, acrylic glass or Lexan top. Usually red, green and blue LEDs are used to get a wide colour range. Modern illuminated floors are lit using coloured LEDs. They consisted of translucent coloured glass panels lit from below by bulbs.
