STAR TREK Fan Creates Vinyl Stickers Holodeck Controls and Puts Them in a Los Angeles City Park
A Star Trek fan by the name of Arthur Edward Chadwick created some vinyl stickers with the LCARS computer control system seen in Star Trek: The Next Generation and other Star Trek shows. He then placed them on two pylons in a Los Angeles City Park for people to play with and enjoy.
The control panel shown on these is for the holodeck, which is an immersive system on the Enterprise that allows for crew members to recreate almost anything using holographic technology.
This particular park is said to be located in North Hollywood.
i fixed these pylons last week. apparently it’s making people happy. https://t.co/L6mBjzardq pic.twitter.com/H3nUtUvqdO

— Holodeck Program interface spotted in LA city park: Gotta love this little prank hack that Jeremy Yoder spotted on his run through the park a couple of days ago. Someone has turned an outdoor utility enclosure into a Star Trek… https://t.co/zAvrbXCSMW ↪ @alik0760 ↩ pic.twitter.com/V2ZXVKsPIN

“Computer: End Program - Pandemic Apocalypse 2020”
... didn’t work.
I think there might be a glitch with the ship’s power converters.
Can someone get engineering down here?! #StarTrek #HoloDeck pic.twitter.com/U7NN1Kulgz
