At Prolight + Sound 2018, Claypaky will reveal ZAC-EYE, an innovative digital device, turning a Claypaky luminaire into a fully automatic follow-spot system using artificial intelligence.
What would the ultimate follow spot be like? A fixture that sees like a human eye, is aware of the stage, knows where the actors are, and follows their movements seamlessly without us having to lift a finger; a light which magically does what seems so obvious: always illuminate the actor.
Zac-Eye is the first stand-alone follow spot to use artificial intelligence: the movements of the fixture are controlled automatically thanks to this highly innovative device. The magic box is an external device which can be connected to any Claypaky moving light via Ethernet. Its optical 3D sensor detects all the objects on the stage, and a sophisticated algorithm distinguishes human shapes from the rest of the environment. No fine tuning is needed! Simple to install and use, completely reliable, and affordable: the Zac-Eye is the follow spot of the future.
Claypaky will also be presenting its new AXCOR 300 series, which consists of three powerful, compact moving LED lights – the Axcor Spot 300, the Axcor Beam 300 and the Axcor Wash 300. With a physical size, power consumption and price-point that disguise their strength and creative potential, the Axcor 300 range enables a new world of expression in touring, events, TV, theatre and installed lighting markets.
On the other side of these compact LED luminaires, Claypaky introduces AXCOR PROFILE 900, the most powerful profile spot existing on the market today. The LED based offering includes the revolutionary K-EYE HCR family, delivering High Color Rendering > 95.
Claypaky does not forget the traditional discharge lamp technology and launches the new hybrid wash/beam HEPIKOS, featuring an Osram 440 Watt Sirius lamp.
