Apple Design Award Cube Innards Revealed
Students Alexander Griekspoor and Tom Groothuis won the Apple Design Award for Best Mac OS X Student Product at the WWDC in June 2004 for an application called 4Peaks. The Apple Design Award is a metal cube with an Apple logo on top. When the cube is touched, the Apple logo on the cube glows. Curious about how this works, the students decided to run their award cube through a CT scanner to see what is inside rather than to open it up and possibly damage it. The linked pictures and QuickTime movies (including VR) here and here show what the innards of the Award cube look like--pretty cool.
