HTML · JAVA SCRIPT · SVG
The U.S.S. Spann Master Systems Display brings my custom starship to life as an interactive webpage inspired by Star Trek’s engineering displays. I designed and organized the artwork in Inkscape, then added JavaScript animations and controls while preserving the SVG layout. Moving turbolifts stop at different destinations throughout the ship, synchronized energy pulses flow through the warp cores, and changing readouts, power meters, and engine diagnostics keep the display active. This public version shares a piece of the experience I’m creating for my Star Trek–themed home theater.
