I have a conflict of interest regarding this topic, as I am involved in the project described below. I therefore do not intend to edit the article directly.
I would like to propose adding a short implementation example to the "Applications" section. In May 2026, students at Nagaoka Institute of Design installed a bench-shaped lantern incorporating transparent wood under the gangi, a traditional covered walkway in snowy regions, in front of the Goze Museum Takada in Joetsu, Niigata Prefecture, Japan. The translucent wood panels were used as part of a lighting design depicting Takada goze (visually impaired female musicians) walking through a snowy arcade.

Would other editors consider this a suitable short example for the applications section? If so, I have drafted a proposed text block below that can be easily copied and pasted into the article.
