Every year PV Automotive, a supplier of car workshop equipment, invites their customers to a big private exhibition with a big party. This year's show had to be a combined intense & modern intro with a product introduction of a new released software. Therefore we started the show with a custom made 3D sport car animation with overlapping laser lines using some special grating effects on the projection. After that 3D car intro we pointed out the new key features of the software with combined video/laser projections, always with beam show and lighting support to a room-filling experience.

This multimedia show was made as an introduction to the evening program of the Interface festival. Interface is a joint conference of the associations of entertainment industry eventors and the association of technical show business companies. The conference was held in the original form of a duel of speakers. Therefore, the theme of dueling pistols runs through the entire show. Topics for discussion are also presented allegorically.

To launch their re-brand and new brand ambition 'Beyond Limits', BT held an epic World-Record-breaking indoor drone show with a performance from pop star Jess Glynne at Wembley Arena. We provided 83 laser fixtures, 48 of which were on a 3m ring that created a focal laser display in the centre of the stage. The technological showcase was coded by young school children to promote BT's Skills for Tomorrow programme, and who were able to control the colours and effects of our lasers themselves, live on stage!

We were proud to supply and operate a stonking 66 fixtures for the finale show of Strictly Come Dancing. During the opening number, RGB scanning lasers enthralled the audience as they tracked with the dancers in an immaculately choreographed, interactive routine. Light-weight interconnecting lasers then brought the energy up with a dazzling display as the entire cast took to the floor.

Lasers were used in a few key segments during the shooting of Expo 2020 promotional video. Even though each element is seen for fractions of seconds, in reality it was days of prep work followed by two shooting days in studio.

In this live planetarium concert we dive in the depth of cosmos with deep ambient music. The music is not a written composition, it is a live improvisation. Both lasers and visualizations on the dome are not prerendered either, they are live controlled. Lasers do not play the main role, they are there to emphasize the mood and match the visualizations on the dome. They are ascetic yet powerful, following the rule 'less is more’.

Following the music, this show travels through various worlds, which evoke different emotions. The feature is complemented by a fountain flame, which combines the elements of fire and water in an equally astounding manner as the show combines calm and tension. Thanks to the matching ambient lights of the moving heads, the show journeys further into an inspiring artificial realm. Of course, this category is not lacking in accents provided by flame jets.

We supplied Coachella's Saturday night headliner, Tame Impala, with a spectacular laser show, using 34 laser fixtures with 1,020 watts - one of our most powerful shows to date! Tame Impala wanted to make a big impact at Coachella and the SFX production had to be impressive and build upon the buzz already surrounding their upcoming album. We played a key role in the design and programming of the show, more than delivering on the ‘modern day take on 60s psychedelia’ brief to create a visually spectacular, mind-blowing set.

This show was created by using our vision of the topic of New Year 2020. We used variable-focus laser beams, which helped us to change the divergence of the beam on different objects. As a result we highlight certain areas of the show, and to increase the cinematic feel.

The designer produced this show to the music of a friend of his. The tune is intense, a puristic electronic track, which makes it a perfect match for the high-tech expression within the medium of lasers. With the designer being a stickler for detail, there is no doubt that he managed to find the perfect match between effects and musical mood, despite the restrictions of only using one scanning head.

“Death and Desire” creates a fast paced upbeat atmosphere with vocals and other electronic elements that are accented through the fog. There are 16 carefully-placed mirrors which allow the artist to expand their creativity with only a single projector.

Planet URF is a total different, mystic, crazy style of music and for that reason i wanted to design in a total different way. After hearing the sound for the first time i got some very custom pictures in my head and so i had to create a very custom made setup. The new arrangement gave me the possibility to create much more deepness in the room, new moods and some new effects fitting to this spacey sound. The aim was to be beamed to another planet.

When the organizing committee of the Sestriere women's ski World Cup competitions asked us to offer a show instead of the classic fireworks, in addition to the lasershow in the main square, it came naturally to propose a laser mapping intervention on the mountain in front the village, the projection varied from a minimum of 350 meters up to 1.3 km. from the projection point of our laser truck ... a huge natural screen that we could not leave without a signature!

The installation was realized at an international festival of audiovisual art. We were inspired history of space, where before located a prison for political prisoners. It was important to create immersion in the mystical atmosphere of the place and draw public attention to the cultural heritage of the building.

For three days laser beams enveloped the space and system of mirrors allowed the length of the basement to be deepened. The musical accompaniment was created specifically for the installation, creating a mystical mood and further immersing the viewer in the context.

The experimenta is Germany's biggest science center. Its most notable feature, the Science Dome, has a projection surface of 726 m² for 6 360° full-dome video and 6 fiber-optic laser projectors, as well as a 10 m wide, 5.000-nozzle stage mode water screen – for laser graphics shows, beam shows, and shows with actors and special effects. To keep the audience safe from getting hit by any lasers reflected off the 56 effect mirrors, the lower end of the dome is equipped with LIDAR sensors fanning out IR light over several meters, immediately shutting off the projectors in case of an obstruction.

We took the challenge to illuminate the tallest statue in the world, the “Statue of Unity” in Gujarat, India, by a permanent 3D laser and video mapping show. The biggest challenge was the distance of 600 meters (2,000 ft) from the statue, to illuminate the 182 meter (597 ft) tall statue. At the end, we solved the challenge by using 51 25k video-projectors and 6 laser systems with OPSL technology and special beam collimation to get a clear image on the bronze statue. The content of the show tells the story and history about Sardar Patel and the construction of the statue.

North Forest Lights is a night walk through nature with an immersive multi-media sound and light experience. The creator had a vision to amplify one of the primary viewing points by adding a laser system. Under their artistic direction, we designed, installed and programmed a permanent laser projection solution. Atmospheric effects swirl under the feet of the viewers as they cross the footbridge. The natural setting of the night forest and the view point from above, bring a magical fresh perspective to the beauty of laser light.

Different materials have been researched to make the laser beam visible. The most intriguing result was achieved using the tiny droplets from a spray bottle, creating the effect of a strange, wild galaxy in the deep blue swirls of an ocean. The turbulent twist of a silken thread within the laser fan additionally obfuscates the process in which this photograph was created.
