Don't think it means much, but could this be related to a binary clock?

It IS very similar to a binary clock but the dot configurations look different.

Nice spot, it does working now ! Check Surprised

3.0 INTRODUCTION

3.2 KEY DATA

MODULE 3.0
A BETTER WORLD OF INNOVATION

Weyland Industries employs over 800 million citizens. As such, our products and electronics are the most advanced, most efficient and most highly intelligent on the market.

Our bio-sensors can detect trace amounts of toxic contaminants, making workplaces safer. Our FTT devices and holographic controls make scientific research easier. And our micron-sized platinum-doped laser position sensors make everything from terraforming equipment to weapons-tech smaller, lighter and faster. Our innovations are working harder in every home and every industry sector to make your world better.

Developed by Weyland's world-class materials scientists and electrical engineers on Gliese 581, all innovations undergo rigorous testing at the New Products Testbed facilities at Henri Gaston. We use only the most advanced rare materials extracted from mines across the galaxy, and our nobel-prize winning physicists and materials engineers hold the leading number of patents in the fields of lasers, nanotechnology, and microfabrication. Many products using this technology will soon be making history as part of the highly-anticipated Prometheus mission.

MODULE 3.1
FEATURED PRODUCTS
SPECTAGRAPH

This next-generation device, used by Weyland geologists and engineers, surveys unknown planetary terrain in the pre-terraforming process. An omni-directional laser live-maps 3D topography and sends the detailed scanned images to the viewing platform. New hyper-conducting spherical shell allows smooth, self-propelled flight in any atmosphere. Polymer film bio-sensors can detect airborne toxins and life forms down to 500 nanometers.

VR HELMET

The VR helmet represents brand new technology designed to enhance the function of latest Weyland android, David 8. All new David 8 models will be VR-compatible. The helmet taps into David 8's expanded neural network and translates human thought, dreams or unconscious experience into images. The VR helmet senses the brain activity of a human subject, then enlists the high data processing rate of the David 8 to translate billions of synapse firings into visual data.

HOLOGRAPHIC ENVIRONMENT SIMULATOR

Invented in 2024. Perfected in 2073. The Holographic Environment Simulator (HES) can provide audio, visual and kinesthetic enhancement to any room, anywhere. The HES picks up live video feed from a remote receiver and fills any space with the sights and sounds of that environment in real-time. The HES can also recreate a full-surround environment of a specific location from any point in time for academic study or personal entertainment.

BROCA DIALETICAL IMPLANT

Requiring no actual language-learning by the user, the Broca Dialectical Implant is the first of its kind. Embedded Interpretation Software (EIS) translates incoming dialects of any origin into fluent comprehension for the Broca user. An exclusive innovation from Weyland Electronics.

new pic revealed Smile


parody analysis:

i noticed that the dots on the wheelbarrow image align with certain letters directly below them. i've listed the letters from top to bottom:

I R U
S,E,A,T,O, S or T
B, V
R or B, G
E
L, -

the only thing that stands out to me is the word 'seat' in the second row(above) and the dash on the bottom row. maybe we will get second row movie seats to this but have to 'dash'/hurry to get them?

according to wikipedia, the wheelbarrow was used in ancient greece, sometimes in rome, and ancient china- often referred to as a one-wheel cart. however, i cannot find a god of wheelbarrows. i might have to look more broadly into the mythologies of landscaping & construction tools than anything specific dealing with wheels.

(end parody analysis) < - have to state this in case someone takes this seriously.

Nice catch.

I think the screw up was in letting the page go live.

There were 14 blocked/classified/restricted pages (including Electronics), which probably means 2 reveals/week until the movie is released. I'm guessing they planned to have the Electronics page go live layer today. Someone may have been testing the page and for some reason linked it a little earlier then scheduled.

In case this may be helpful, here are the dot matrices at the corner of the Weyland page graphics. I've put them in roughly the order and position that they appear on the page (whether that may be meaningful or not...)


I know this was a while ago but I have been analysing this and have some numbers.

I'm pretty sure that having done so there is nothing in it and that I have wasted my time but I'll post none the less.

I fear you could be right but I'm liking your work. Smile

But yeah, I just checked. I thought we found something new here. Oh well.

Also that commented code cracked me up. It's like they're too busy working on the sites that they can't be arsed to check their grammar.


Just noticed this in the source code of the Electronics page...

LMAO! Brilliant!!! My own little bit of interaction.

 		If @0bFuSc8 is right, 2 site page unlocks/week leading up to Prometheus launch/release (Shaw's keynote)
So hopefully the full Electronics page should be going live later today...
