The development of larger lighting units is s till limited by the low cost-benefit ratio in the area of scaling performance and color quality. At its world premiere in New York in 1960, the laser was suspiciously regarded as a \u201cray gun\u201d. Since then, laser technology found applications in medicine, meteorology, and industrial manufacturing, as well as in communications and consumer electronics. In cinemas, laser projection has revolutionized screening quality with razor-sharp images. In automobiles, laser diode headlights provide extremely high luminance density and scope. Lasers also introduce enormous new potential when applied to classic film lighting techniques.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-6798\" src=\"http:\/\/greenfilmshooting.net\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/Xtylos-300x227.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"227\" srcset=\"https:\/\/greenfilmshooting.net\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/Xtylos-300x227.jpg 300w, https:\/\/greenfilmshooting.net\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/Xtylos-768x581.jpg 768w, https:\/\/greenfilmshooting.net\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/Xtylos-630x477.jpg 630w, https:\/\/greenfilmshooting.net\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/Xtylos.jpg 847w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>As the first manufacturer of automated professional lighting equipment for the entertainment industry, the Italian company Claypaky launched a moving light equipped with a 180W laser engine that utilizes red, green, and blue banks of lasers. The Xtylos is a compact-beam moving light that uses three lasers for its light source. A sophisticated optical system bundles the three basic colors, so that they emerge as a consistent beam of light.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-6796 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/greenfilmshooting.net\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/voll-300x195.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"195\" srcset=\"https:\/\/greenfilmshooting.net\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/voll-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/greenfilmshooting.net\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/voll-768x499.jpg 768w, https:\/\/greenfilmshooting.net\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/voll-630x410.jpg 630w, https:\/\/greenfilmshooting.net\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/voll.jpg 981w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\u201cThe optical system makes it possible to modulate the beam\u2019s exit angle, color mix, and use of gobos\u201d, says Claas Ernst, Managing Director of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.visiontwo.de\">VisionTwo<\/a>, the German distribution and service partner of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.claypaky.it\/en\/\">Claypaky<\/a>.

Thanks to the efficiency of the 300 W white laser engine, the Skylos can compete in light output with classic Xenon-based search lights of up to 4 kW. This laser-based light outperforms Xenon in energy efficiency by a coefficient greater than ten, just as it outperforms LED luminants by a wide margin.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Cn4G3ZS8BYg?si=i8oDrXY2oX6RYcc_\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-6797\" src=\"http:\/\/greenfilmshooting.net\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/Clay-Paky-Xtylos-CR2-\u00a9Herbert-Bernstadt-Kopie-1-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/greenfilmshooting.net\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/Clay-Paky-Xtylos-CR2-\u00a9Herbert-Bernstadt-Kopie-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/greenfilmshooting.net\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/Clay-Paky-Xtylos-CR2-\u00a9Herbert-Bernstadt-Kopie-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/greenfilmshooting.net\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/Clay-Paky-Xtylos-CR2-\u00a9Herbert-Bernstadt-Kopie-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/greenfilmshooting.net\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/Clay-Paky-Xtylos-CR2-\u00a9Herbert-Bernstadt-Kopie-1-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/greenfilmshooting.net\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/Clay-Paky-Xtylos-CR2-\u00a9Herbert-Bernstadt-Kopie-1-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/greenfilmshooting.net\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/Clay-Paky-Xtylos-CR2-\u00a9Herbert-Bernstadt-Kopie-1-630x420.jpg 630w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\u201cThe laser engine is designed so that the beam is diffused by different lenses and mirrors\u201d, explains the lighting expert. The construction of wide-area dispersing lights, such as fresnels or floods, is still limited by a low cost-benefit ratio in the area of scaling performance and color quality. \u201cJust as LED lighting technology, which was launched twenty years ago, has since made great technological advances\u201d, emphasizes Claas Ernst, \u201cwe can assume that laser technology will eventually overcome its current problems and limitations.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>Photos: \u00a9 VisionTwo GmbH, Ralph Larmann, Herbert Bernst\u00e4dt<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Lasers are now being used for the first time as a light source for classic motion-picture lighting techniques.
