Size changing room illusion system and method

A method for performing a shrinking room illusion, the method comprising:

• using a first lighting to illuminate a first group of perforated optics panels, wherein the first group of perforated optics panels defines a first interior space, and wherein the first lighting is disposed within the first interior space;
• using a second lighting to illuminate a second group of panels, wherein the second group of panels defines a second interior space, wherein the first group of perforated optics panels are nested within the second interior space, and wherein the second lighting is disposed within the second interior space and beyond the first interior space;
• and
• using a controller to control the first lighting and the second lighting to transition between illuminating the first group of perforated optics panels and illuminating the second group of panels such that a visual illusion of transitioning between the first interior space and the second interior space is provided.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium coupled to one or more processors and having instructions stored thereon which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

• using a first lighting to illuminate a first group of perforated optics panels, wherein the first group of perforated optics panels defines a first interior space, and wherein the first lighting is located in the first interior space;
• using a second lighting to illuminate a second group of panels, wherein the second group of panels defines a second interior space, wherein the first group of perforated optics panels are nested within the second interior space, and wherein the second lighting is located in the second interior space and beyond the first interior space;
• and
• using a controller to control the first lighting and the second lighting to transition between illuminating the first group of perforated optics panels and illuminating the second group of panels such that a visual illusion of transitioning between the first interior space and the second interior space is provided.
