Power Technology, a US-based laser company, has developed multi-projector laser light source. Unlike a traditional light source used in a single projector, the Illumina Light Farm can deliver a source of light to multiple projectors using fibre optics.
Existing projectors can be retrofitted to work with the ILF, meaning that lamp-based models are able to be upgraded to laser illumination. The initial target market is digital cinemas undergoing retrofits; however, Power Technology also believes that the product can be used in amusement parks and VR simulations.
The company writes, ‘The Illumina Light Farm is designed and positioned to make laser illuminated projection a viable option for every multi-projector installation in the world.’
