USA - Elation has introduced ColourTune Technology, a lighting fixture software that allows for “unprecedented control over output and colour accuracy” across Elation’s range of full-spectrum LED lighting fixtures.
“With ColourTune, users can customize lighting output to meet their exact needs, whether emphasizing brightness or colour fidelity. It offers a comprehensive suite of features, ensuring adaptability and colour precision for the highest quality lighting designs,” the company says.
Bob Mentele, associate product manager at Elation, was instrumental in ColourTune’s development. He remarks: “Our team has dedicated over a year to research, development, and testing to bring ColourTune Technology to life. This advanced software represents a significant advancement in lighting control and precision and will be a great benefit to the designer who seeks to maximize the potential of our full-spectrum LED products, including fixtures already in the market.”
Key features of ColourTune include: Refined colour tuning; Output balance, with uniform and bright settings; 16-bit CCT control, allowing for minute adjustments of as little as 1° Kelvin; White point adjustment; Dim-to-warm, to emulate the warm, natural glow of tungsten lamps; and Virtual Swatch Book Fade, which enables users to fade between two virtual swtch book colour selections.
Mentele adds: “Designers have been asking for greater colour fidelity and more options in colour and CCT control, and ColourTune is the result of that feedback. We’re committed to providing ever greater quality and performance and ColourTune is a great example of how we continually improve upon and support our products, even if they were purchased years ago.”
