Philips has announced a partnership with flooring manufacturer Desso to produce a light transmissive LED powered carpet that can be used to display directions, messages or even glowing designs. Imagine this in airports!

A glowing carpet would help find luggage carousels and terminals and gates a lot easier if you were looking for a sign above.

Philips and Desso will be revealing more details about the initiative sometime in 2014. [Philips via Inhabitat]
