Products will include all those launched at Prolight+Sound, Frankfurt in April - The Pointe, MiniMe, CycFx 8, Cyclone and MMX Blade - highlighting some brand new concepts - all embracing Robe's smaller-lighter-brighter and more eco-friendly philosophies.
Newly launched at PLASA is the Parfect, a tough PAR-can styled plastic housing featuring Robe's LEDBeam 100 lightsource.
The Robe Parfect, is an LED source ACL beam at an affordable price that is made in Europe. This unit is a static version of the massively successful LedBeam 100 and retains all the key features of this, including both CMY & RGBW colour control, tungsten emulation, Zone Fx, selectable & variable colour temperatures ... and the really powerful, punchy 7° beam.
The compact and lightweight moulded composite unit comes complete with a combined hanging bracket / floor stand. Wireless DMX, clip-on diffusion filters and detachable barn-doors, are available as extras.
In five months, The Pointe has become Robe's fastest selling fixture ever - with over 10,000 orders placed to date. The Pointe is a small, super-bright and very fast multi-purpose moving light unit, with an intense and sharp parallel beam and a host of features making it a truly unique and versatile lightsource. These include a 5 - 20 degree zoom with full focus control, variable frost, two separate prism effects, a rotating and a static gobo wheel and inbuilt colour wheel.
Designed for bar, club, restaurant and retail lighting, the MiniMe is an effects lighting luminaire with the addition of full video output. This small, neat, fast moving fixture is LED driven with a 20,000hour lifetime lightsource. Colours, gobos and beam shapes are all digitally generated by the on-board micro media server. Custom artwork, still photographs and video can also be simply uploaded for projection, whilst live video can be streamed through the HDMI input.
The Robin MMX Blade is a bright 1200-series equivalent lightsource utilising Robe's popular MMX optical technology, complete with a framing shutter system comprising four fast 'blades' that can be individually positioned and angled plus or minus 45 degrees, with the whole Blade module capable of plus / minus 90 degree rotation.
The Robin ROBIN CycFX 8 is a one metre linear strip that can be tilted 270 degree featuring an array of high powered RGBW LEDs for fabulously smooth colour mixing, with a zoom option that opens the spread out from 8 to 67 degrees. The ultra-fast, motorized tilt movement allows the creation of spectacular 'wave' effects along a line of fixtures. Individual control of each LED makes the fixture map-able, and enables multiple CycFX 8s to be built into a variety of matrix designs.
The Robin Cyclone is an inventive effects moving head product with an integrated fan in the centre surrounded by a ring of 24 x high powered RGBW multichip LEDs. There is a zoom of 8 to 63 degrees on the LEDs .. and a strong central airflow that can be combined with fog and haze to assist with creating the best quality atmospheric effects.
