Wybron took home two awards at Lightfair 2002. The company’s Eclipse II (a DMX iris douser), won in the category of theatrical and entertainment lighting, whilst Moiré, its dual pattern rotator, was named best product in the category for sports lighting.

Eclipse II is a variable speed DMX controlled iris douser, with linear control using a single motor. It can realistically fade fixtures that use non-dimmable arc and metal halide sources, products which are becoming more and more prevalent in lighting design today. This is the third time Eclipse II has been honoured with an award in less than a year, the first two being the LDI Awards 2001 and the EDDY Awards last December. The Moiré, winner in the category of sports lighting, is Wybron’s first dual gobo rotator, which can rotate and change between two B-sized glass or metal gobos. Controlled by a simple toggle switch, the two gobos are operated independently and can be rotated together, in opposite directions or with one static and the other moving.

Brandon James, Wybron’s director of sales, was presented with the awards at the annual Lightfair International Conference in the Moscone Convention Centre, San Francisco.
