Hi All!
At Pangolin, along with our well-known software developments, we have also
been working on a new laser projection concept. We invite you to learn about
this new development at the upcoming ILDA Conference's Technical Workshop,
on June 5.
To create a laser show, there are certain dimensions (parameters) we all
have worked with for years. When we first buy a laser, we marvel a while at
the static beam. Then we get bored so we add the next dimension, the ability
to create shapes, using diffraction gratings or scanners. The next dimension
is to add blanking, so the moving image (graphic or beam pattern) does not
have to have all the lines connected. After this, the next dimension is to
change the color of the entire image or pattern. By using PCAOMs or fast,
direct-modulated lasers, we may gain yet another dimension, of
point-by-point color control.
At the ILDA Technical Workshop, Pangolin will be presenting yet another
dimension to laser light -- one which we believe is the first new laser beam
characteristic since PCAOMs in the early 1990s.
The presentation will consist of a PowerPoint, along with photos and videos
that we shot last night while we had this new system working at LSDI. Aside
from the pictures, video, and our own testimonial, Greg Makhov and Patrick
Murphy will also comment about what they saw and experienced last night.
(Unfortunately, owing to time constraints, the equipment which creates this
new dimension can't make it to Amsterdam.)
We don't want to reveal much more right now, but will say that the new
dimension is applicable to graphics, abstracts, raster imagery, overhead
beam effects and audience scanning and it will be relatively inexpensive to
add this new dimension to your laser projector.
I hope you will be able to attend, to see all the presentations ...
including this new dimension that will provide a whole new level of
creativity for laser artists everywhere.
Of course, if you come to the ILDA meeting, be sure to stick around for our
18th annual Pangolin User Meeting, which takes place on June 8.
