USA - Never resting on its laurels, Elation Professional has been continually making R&D advances in some of its most successful lighting products and technologies, most notably the Platinum lamp and LED categories as well as new control solutions. Now the company will be showcasing products built around these innovations at the 2013 LDI Show, held at the Las Vegas Convention Centre, 22-24 November.

UK - Until now, short throw and ultra-short throw projection has typically been limited to smaller, lower brightness, fixed lens projectors used in education seminar rooms and in corporate meeting room environments. Panasonic is about to change that with the arrival of the new ET-DLE030 short throw lenses for larger format single chip DLP projectors.

With prototype models shown earlier this year at ISE 2013 and at Prolight + Sound shows, engineers in Panasonic R&D operations have since been finely crafting an impressive solution that vertically redirects light cast from projectors at a distance of just 370mm from the projector to produce a bright, perfectly symmetrical sided image directly above it. This is achieved by a cleverly designed mirror system and brings about new and exciting possibilities, unachievable with front projectors especially for applications in digital signa
