Gaithersburg teen engineers Tesla light show | Get Uplifted

The event was held on the grounds of a Hindu temple in Frederick County, Maryland.

GAITHERSBURG, Md. — A Gaithersburg teenager is helping us get uplifted with a truly unique light and music show to honor an iconic deity in the Hindu religion.

It was all made possible with the help of 17-year-old Satvik Gudipati, who spent endless hours visualizing and sequencing over 100 Tesla cars' head and tail lights in time with accompanying music. This was all programmed with in USB support.  

In a viral drone video, you can see the moment it all came together as Hindu-American Tesla owners gathered to celebrate the reconstruction of an historic temple in the Indian birthplace of the iconic deity, Lord Ram.

The eco-friendly cars were used because they align with Hindu eco-friendly beliefs. The event was held on the grounds of a Hindu temple in Frederick County, Maryland.  

The cars all parked strategically navigating spacing, rain, cold, wind and ground issues to get in perfect formation to spell out "Ram." Thanks to Gudipati's coding, eight other American cities are planning similar light shows.
