USA - Wilmington, Delaware-based Main Light Industries Inc, inventor of the patented Lightscape fibre optic curtain, has announced the release of its new Soft-LED dynamic drapery. To create Soft-LED, the company has incorporated a full colour LED array to its Lightscape curtain. The Soft-LED dynamic drapery allows audiences to enjoy a familiar fibre optic star field background, and then be blown away by full-colour graphics and low-res video images that seem to appear from nowhere, say Main Light.

Soft-LED takes advantage of Color Kinetics' next-generation Chromasic LED control technology, which allows precise control of the individual RGB LED sources. The Soft-LED dynamic drapery is compact, lightweight and easy to pack at the end of the show - especially when compared to other LED display technologies, say the company. Soft-LED systems are available specifically packaged for theatre and touring applications.

Aidas Gimbutas, president of Main Light Industries said: "Main Light is known for innovative fibre optic products for entertainment lighting. Soft-LED enables entirely new design possibilities through advanced control of coloured LEDs, and we look forward to the many imaginative applications that will surely follow."
