One of the most exciting innovations from TMB this year is new Q+ Technology, now available in the Solaris Flare. This LED driver technology maximizes LED output for unprecedented brightness, while also optimizing LED temperatures for long term reliability.
The new Flare Q+ fixture has all the features of its renowned predecessor, while Q+ Technology increases the brightness by over 40% with practically no fan noise. Its Theatre Mode is effectively silent, yet still brighter than the original Flare. Also introduced at LDI, the new Flare LR Q+ offers Q+ Technology performance in a linear format. Flare IP outdoor fixtures will also be on hand, as will other Solaris LED fixtures such as Mozart and the SoLED strobe.
Central to this year's TMB LDI experience are hands-on demos and announcements. Of special note, TMB was recently appointed US and Latin American entertainment production and staging markets distributor for Christie Digital's projection and video processing products, including Pandoras Box, Spyder and Boxer, J and M Series large format projectors.
Also of note, TMB was appointed this year as exclusive distributor of Wireless Solution W-DMX products for the US. See the latest W-DMX products at booth 1786, directly across from the TMB lounge.
Next to Wireless Solution will be the Nuri*Lites booth, displaying the new Nuri*Lites LED fixtures, distributed worldwide by TMB.
Other proprietary or exclusive products include Firefly premium decorative lighting systems, featuring NEW Digital FloppyFlex LED neon with DMX multi-pixel control. ProPlex Data Distribution has some new additions for comprehensive data distribution and show networking solutions.
Pro Cables, professional cable assemblies will be on hand, as will new IMS Mk2 individually DMX-controlled marquee / festoon lighting systems.
Training will round out TMB's presence with two one-hour exhibitor presented seminars, free to all attendees: Show Networking and Data Distribution on Friday, 21 October at 11 am, and an Introduction to Christie Digital Projection and Video Processing Technologies, including Pandoras Box, Saturday, 22 October at 11:30 am. Both seminars are in conference room N108.
