Through the agreement, Main Light will apply Color Kinetics' patented LED control technology to offer Soft-LED - a drapery which allows precise control of individual LED sources, offering designers a flexible medium with which to create shapes, patterns and complex light shows that span thousands of individually controllable tri-color LED nodes. Soft-LED will be available in various sizes and form factors to accommodate diverse applications and installations.
"Our agreement with Main Light opens another exciting channel for Color Kinetics' intelligent LED technology," said Bill Sims, president and COO of CKI. "Main Light's expertise in developing versatile light draperies coupled with Color Kinetics' solid-state lighting technology and know-how will create a powerful tool for lighting designers across many applications."
"Main Light is known for innovative fibre optic use in entertainment lighting, and we're thrilled to align with Color Kinetics to add the advantages of proven, intelligent solid-state lighting technology to our product line," said Aidas Gimbutas, president of Main Light. "We've already seen demand for Soft-LED, which enables whole new design possibilities through advanced control of LEDs, and we look forward to the many inventive applications that will follow."
