any plans of adding the new touchscreen board, to the other models, besides just the pluto II?

Hi Carlos,

The new touch screen system is standard specification for LEO series and Pluto II series lasers, other series lasers are available to have it on your request, just production time will be a bit longer than usual.

Hi,

I have a question about the built-in brightness adjustment on these pluto II lasers, which I assume is via the touch screen.

How reliable exactly are they?

If I wanted to do crowd scanning and all my calculations showed that it was only safe after reducing the brightness of the laser, I'd want do it on the laser itself, rather than using software, such as quickshow because as we all know software fails and there could be a risk of the brightness going back up to full.

But if the built-in brightness control also uses software, what happens if that fails? Could the brightness go back up to full?

With good old physical potentiometers, the risk of failing in an unsafe way feels much lower.

Can any of you Pluto II users or other experts help shed some light?

Cheers

Personally, I wouldn't recommend audience scanning using the standalone controls.
Invest in some Pangolin Safety Scan lenses (or similar) to adjust your beam intensity in the audience area to within safe limits.

The built-in show controller is almost certainly not going to be of a high enough standard to form any part of a safety system. It's purpose is to allow you to operate the projector in it's most primitive mode without any computer control. I would only expect this to ever be used in situations where audience/staff exposure is impossible (eg, overhead beams only or into a secure area where people can't enter).

Also, don't forget that calculations are not enough on their own. You also need to MEASURE the beam intensities at the appropriate points (you really need to attend a laser show safety training course as this subject is relatively complex). You will need a beam intensity meter and as far as I can tell the cheapest reliable option would set you back about $400+ (I can't tell where you are in the world as you haven't filled in your profile).

Note that my experience of the built-in controller is from the previous generation of Pluto II but my logic is that it's a cheap and cheerful way to "get the projector working" and nothing more. I doubt anyone would ever recommend using it for serious shows (audience scanning definitely falls under "serious").

Cheers,
John

I would guess that the intensity or power options would be for power balancing or white balancing the projectors only.

Hi John,

I will be measuring light intensity before doing any crowd scanning. I was also planning to get a safety scan lens or similar, though thanks for flagging up.

With these in mind, if there is still a need to reduce brightness of the laser itself, is the use of something like Quickshow suitably reliable, either by reducing maximum brightness or by using the BAM?
I intend to use QS for the show but am always a bit nervous about relying on software when safety is at stake, unless there is built in fail-safe and/ or redundancy.

Cheers
