When to use IVL™ Lighting?

The IVL™ Lighting has been designed for experience.

First of all it has a perfectly calibrated output which allows for a smooth immersive feeling while being completely safe and comfortable to look at.

Then, the IVL™ Lighting is an innovative tool to bring advanced shapes, immersion and versatility to your designs.

Whether it is used for all the times when brightness is not the adequate tool to create a special atmosphere, render an emotion, woah the audience or for the venues where designed-for-brightness products offer too limited options: either too bright, not immersive enough, too directional, or too heavy.

Why is IVL™ Lighting a time and cost-effective solution?

These high-end products are both light and robust.

Beside the light weight of each fixture, fewer units than usual lighting are needed to create astonishing designs, which results in less substantial logistics since it requires no heavy structure.

All of that put together enables a gain of time and cost in terms of travel, storage, set up and dismantling.

On top of that, this time and cost-effective solution is low maintenance. Its electronical mechanism is as reliable as it is simple and the fixtures are easy to clean on the road.

To talk more about cost, let’s have a look at the global cost of a solution for creative lighting experience.

Why is IVL™ Lighting not a « laser-effect » ?

Everyone has the experience of waving their finger through a candle flame. Even though the flame is hot, the motion of finger reduces the temperature on the skin. The same is true for IVL™’s scanning technology. The IVL™ technology always ensures a constant scanning rate with a special redundant safety system. In this way, the IVL™ technology transforms the laser light source into a new category of lighting with unique shapes, unique textures, unique immersion, and a standard safety.

Indeed, the safe eye exposure distance is always a constant. As for any other lighting fixtures, the only safety precaution is to respect that safe eye exposure distance of a few meters.

This is unlike existing audience scanning (AS) effects whose safety depends upon 5 or 6 adjustable parameters, which must be calculated and tested by AS experts after each effect is programmed or changed.

That’s why, with IVL™ lighting, no need for highly trained ‘laser light show’ safety experts and no need of pre-show safety testing for audience effects at every venue.
