ARRI introduces new Orbiter lighting system

Arri has taken advantage of the technological framework of IBC 2019 to present its new Orbiter lighting system. With the same theory that the company applies in the development of cameras, it has developed this new lighting system that will revolutionize the market.

It is an ultra-bright LED lighting system with interchangeable optics. Thanks to its quick lighting assembly system, optical elements with different properties can be added and changed. ARRI has opted in this model for a technologically advanced product capable of adapting to all types of productions and photographic needs. In the same device we can have open face, soft light and soft light type spotlights.

ARRI Spectra’s six-color light engine includes red, green, blue, amber, cyan and lime LEDs that provide enhanced color rendering in the CCT range for more accurate colors. Orbiter’s CCT range is from 2,000 to 20,000K which, combined with the 3 levels of dimming, can be achieved down to zero dimming with no flicker and no color shift. For character lighting, ARRI says that stunning, natural skin tones are achieved.

Orbiter allows light to be thrown over long distances with the high-performance directional beam of the open-face optic, while the projection opticis perfect for achieving perfect circles of adjustable lights with cutters, spotlights and gobos. The dome optic, on the other hand, offers a soft beam for illumination in open spaces.

Orbiter includes the LiOS system with eight color modes CCT, HSI, single color, X Y coordinates, gel and source awareness, lighting effects and ambient color sensing.

Orbiter will be on the market in early 2020.
