Pharos Architectural Controls will return to LiGHT 26 to give visitors a first look at what it calls the most significant development to its Pharos Designer software in recent years. The company will exhibit on Stand 43 at the Business Design Centre in London on 18–19 November.
Pharos Designer is a comprehensive dynamic lighting control solution for architectural, themed and entertainment environments. According to Pharos, its programming and integration capabilities allow designers to create lighting experiences ranging from individual spaces and buildings to large-scale connected installations.
The company is withholding full details until the show, but said visitors can expect new capabilities offering greater control over lighting effects, interactivity and colour. The developments are intended to take dynamic lighting beyond fixed scenes and pre-set sequences, giving designers ways to create lighting that is more responsive, adaptable and engaging. Pharos said the next evolution of Designer would allow lighting to respond more dynamically to its environment and evolve in real time.
Rather than only previewing features, the stand will let visitors experience what the forthcoming capabilities mean for dynamic lighting design in practice. The Pharos team will be available to demonstrate the developments, answer questions and discuss how the technology can support designers working on responsive and immersive environments.
Michael Crilly, senior product manager at Pharos Architectural Controls, said the company had been working on something new and was excited to share significant developments at the show. He said the changes unlock new creative possibilities for dynamic lighting, while not giving too much away before the event. Marco Caamano, marketing manager, described the show as a major moment for Pharos and a significant step forward for Pharos Designer.
Pharos will also exhibit concurrently at IAAPA in Orlando, giving customers in the United States an opportunity to discover what is new.
