Ayrton released a swathe of new products for 2016, many of which will be seen for the first time in London at PLASA 2016, showcased on the Ambersphere Solutions stand. Amongst these are:
MagicPanel-FX is an exciting new multi-function luminaire with a front face comprised of a 5 x 5 array of squared lenses designed to conjure up a multiplicity of 2D and 3D effects. Marking another step in the evolution of the MagicPanel family, with the same dimensions as the DreamPanel family and MagicBurst, MagicPanel-FX multiplies the creative potential of these original families of fixtures.
MagicBurst is the industry's first high-power graphic LED strobe with continuous, unlimited, rotation on the pan and tilt axes - and the first strobe unit to be produced by Ayrton.
MagicBurst's 384 x 384 mm squared face supports 3,840 high-output white LEDs grouped into 64 pixels on an 8 x 8 matrix. Combines with a new ultra-compact 1,300W power supply, MagicBurst can deliver peak light output of over 240,000 lumens - perfectly calibrated at 5600K - for several seconds, and put them into continuous rotation.
MagicBurst's standardized format allows it to be combined in arrays with Ayrton's MagicPanel-FX, or with Imaging Display units like DreamPanel Shift and DreamPanel Twin, for breathtaking results.
AlienPix-RS is a multi-rotational fixture with eight axes of continuous rotation and six individually controllable beams. Inspired by fixtures from the '70s and '80s, AlienPix-RS uses modern technology, optics and LED sources to combine a multiplicity of effects within a single luminaire.
WildSun-S25 is the colour-mixing cousin of the WildSunK25 wash light, packing 217 highly efficient RGBW LED emitters into a compact moving head and punching out 60,000 lumens of light - equivalent to a 4K HMI.
Established favourites including the award-winning MagicDot-R, MagicBlade-R and Ayrton's Nandobeam range will also be on show.
