Author's note

Orbitron Black is a free futuristic geometric sans serif with weighty strokes and a modular build. Rounded outer corners soften the blocky silhouettes, but squared openings and clipped joins keep the lettering technical and machine-made.

Digital graphics are a natural setting for its screen-like forms, especially game menus and science-fiction title cards. Product packaging and event posters can use the same dense construction to suggest electronics, robotics, or engineered equipment. In interface artwork, the letters can become part of a control-panel display rather than serving as neutral text.
