#COLORCAST KINETIC SOFTWARE#
Its flagship technologies leverage a patented layer of digital intelligence, called Chromacore®, to generate and control millions of colors and dynamic lighting effects.Ĭolor Kinetics operates in two principal lines of business: Lighting Systems, including solid-state lighting devices, digital controllers and software for use in high-performance lighting projects and OEM & Licensing, including a standard line of intelligent solid-state lighting modules that can be readily incorporated by other manufacturers. The company's award-winning product lines combine the increasing advantages of LEDs as a light source with its patented digital control technology for use in wide-ranging applications. ColorCast 14 is available with over-molded, end-to-end locking connectors or in a conduit-ready version.Ĭolor Kinetics Incorporated (Nasdaq: CLRK) is a pioneer in the design, marketing and licensing of intelligent solid-state lighting systems. More than just a means of integrating power onboard the fixture, this technology represents a completely new approach to power control and conversion. ColorCast 14 features Powercore?, a new, patent-pending method of digital power processing, which increases efficiency and lowers the total cost of the system by optimizing power and data management. Its ease of installation and continuous run capabilities make it an ideal, cost-effective choice for washing large-scale alcoves, archways, and up to 15' (4.6 m) walls with rich, saturated color and dynamic lighting effects. The 13.5" (34.3 cm) unit comprises 18 red, green, and blue power LEDs mounted in a linear array, projecting soft light with a wide beam angle for even distribution. ColorCast 14 is unique in its blend of minimized size and maximized output.
The rugged, exterior-grade units incorporate Powercore® technology to directly accept line voltage, eliminating the need for external power supplies and easing installation.ColorCast 14 is a high-performance union of linear, low-profile fixture design and maximized light intensity for uniform casts of saturated color in wall washing and large alcove applications. Because Color Kinetics' lighting systems are compatible with the industry-standard DMX protocol, the ColorCast 14 units integrate seamlessly with two Pharos LPC2 controllers, enabling the creation of dynamic light shows on demand. The Color Kinetics-illuminated London Eye is visible from more than a mile away. We're extremely pleased with the results, and believe Londoners and visitors alike will agree," said Kevin Dyer, Head of Technical Operations for the British Airways London Eye. We've achieved an ambitious goal in bringing dynamic, visually appealing color to the structure while at the same time eliminating the maintenance costs and requirements of the previous fluorescent system. "The London Eye has become a 21st Century symbol for Britain, and it's a thrill to see this long-planned project come to realization. This technology gives the London Eye the cost-effective ability to display precise colors for corporate clients and special occasions, while predominantly displaying white light. Each unit may be individually programmed to generate millions of colors that are seamlessly produced by Chromacore® technology, as opposed to the use of colored gels. Approximately 640 ColorCast® 14 luminaires (now specified with ColorGraze IntelliHue Powercore) were supplied, installed and programmed by UK-based Architainment Lighting Ltd.

It was previously lit by fluorescent tubes that proved costly to maintain, and required the manual installation of gels to produce colored light for special events.Ĭolor Kinetics was approached to replace this system with an LED-based alternative. Situated on the South Bank of the River Thames and often called the "Gateway to London," the London Eye is the world's fourth largest observation wheel at nearly 135 m (450 ft) high, and is visited by more than 10,000 people daily. In December 2006 Color Kinetics added another global landmark to its growing list of prominent installations: the British Airways London Eye.
