Something Different...Turf Printer


Pretty cool technology...next time you see a detailed image in the outfield of a baseball field, you'll know how it was created.  The stripes you see on a fairway, for example, is created by the way light reflects off the turf.  The lighter colored stripes are mowing passes where the grass is laying away from you while the darker stripes is where the grass is laying towards you.  By bending individual leave blades in different directions, an image can be ingrained into the turf.
