If you are following the #CES2014 twitter feed you’ll see that wearable tech gear is all the rage at this year’s event. While this may be big news out of town, here in Kitchener Ontario, Thalmic Labs makers of the MYO armband have made another big move in the marketplace by moving from the VeloCity Garage into a retrofitted building. This is making the tech gear company big news both North and South of the boarder.
Diving Into 3 Dimensional Signs
When you think of digital companies, you imagine the next piece of software that is coming to a screen near you. Thalmic Labs is taking your digital experience and adding dimension. Their MYO gesture control armband stands out from the typical tech gear by incorporating their users’ movements into the mix. They are standing out as the next big thing in modern gear and they wanted their custom exterior sign to stand out too. Below is a step by step look of how their custom 3 dimensional sign was created using High Density Urethane, LEDs and a Custom Paint finish.
To begin the process High Density Urethane (HDU) was CNC Router Cut into the shape of the Thalmic symbol.
The logo pieces were primed and given a custom finish durable enough to endure our ever changing weather conditions.
The HDU pieces were wired with LEDs and then enclosed with an acrylic piece

Sculptural Signs Add Artistic Elements To Outdoor Displays
Remember at the end of July when we I posted about the Dimensional Mounties? These replica RCMP officers have now been delivered to their permanent home in Niagara Falls. The Souvenir City Store in Niagara Falls Ontario displays many 3 dimensional signs that are manufactured here at The Sign Depot. They have sign sculptures for Exterior Signs as well as Interior Signs. Just some of their exterior custom business signs include an Inukshuk, a Giant Vase and now these sculptural signs created to look like Mounties. As for artistic signs for the interior of the store you will find an archway sculpted to look like chocolate , a fancy fudge store and many other display areas clearly advertising what they are selling through the use of custom 3 dimensional signs made from Wood and High Density Urethane .These 3 dimensional signs create a lot of interest in all of the promotional products and souveniers that they sell at their retail store.
