The diodes are distributed in seven individually controlled, concentric circles and they can produce a wide spectrum of colours via RGB mixing. Colorsplash features seven static colours, a colour change program with 10 selectable speeds, 5-color pattern chase programs with adjustable speed and sound-active mode via the LED-BOSS optional controller.
The lifespan of the diodes (85 red, 51 green, 60 blue) is estimated at up to 100,000 hours. Power is switchable, 115V/230V or 230V.Each unit weighs 4lb (1.8kg) and measures 6" x 8" x 7.5" (152.4 mm x 203.2mm x 190.5mm).
Two other LED cans, the Colormist and the DMX-512 Colorsplash Jr, housing 80 and 86 LEDs respectively, will also be showcased for the first time at LDI 2005.
