Arri Orbiter-RGB DMX LED Light

The Orbiter features a highly portable design that can change its optics with a breeze using ARRI’s Quick Lighting Mount (QLM), a bayonet-style connection similar to a camera lens mount. Optional 15, 30, 35, and 60° lenses bayonet are quickly attached onto the Orbiter via its QLM system to narrow the light’s native 80° beam spread; 15, 25, and 35° projection optics that produce a sharp, focused beam with evenly distributed color; and small, medium, and large domes that provide a large area of soft light. The light can also be used with separately available light banks, barndoors, honeycombs, and other light-shaping accessories with the appropriate adapter.

The light is weatherproof and can resist dust and water splashes. Its redesigned mounting points secure an optional yoke for positioning with a +/-90° tilt, and the yoke features a standard 1 1/8″ Junior pin mounting point.

Orbiter Option
Orbiter models include an Optic-Free; Small, Medium, and Large Dome; 15, 30, and 60° Open Face; and 15, 25, and 35° Projection versions. ARRI offers a range of open face and projection optics (lens housings), domes, softboxes, snoots, and barndoors. The interchangeable optics quickly and easily attach to the front of the light using the new QLM (quick lighting mount) system, which functions like a giant camera lens mount.

 
Spectra Six-Color LED Light Engine
Including Red, Green, Blue, Amber, Cyan, and Lime LEDs, the ARRI Spectra Six-Color Light Engine translates into a wider color gamut, more accurate colors, and most importantly, higher color rendition across the entire CCT range. Skin tones look natural, and hues are precisely reproduced. The Orbiter has a large CCT range of 2000 to 20,000K with impressively high color rendition across all color temperatures. Using a combination of three dimming techniques, Orbiter’s cutting-edge electronics provide smooth dimming down to zero without color changes or jumps.

 Removable Control Panel
With a 4″ full-color display, quick navigation buttons, and integrated sensors, the Orbiter control panel features a simplified menu structure and reimagined user interfaces that provide one-glance operational views and uncluttered screens. This intuitive design makes changing the color or finding a setting easy. The control panel is removable and can be used handheld with the aid of a 16.4 or 49.2′ control panel cable.

 
Full Suite of Sensors
Included in Orbiter is a color sensor for measuring the ambient light, a 3-axis accelerometer and magnetometer for sensing the pan, tilt, roll, and heading of the fixture, heat sensors for keeping the LEDs and electronics at exactly the right temperature, and an ambient light sensor for automatically dimming the control panel display. All these sensors make for a better user experience and increased control over the fixture. Available data also improves workflow in post-production and service.

 
Large Range of Applications
Orbiter’s wide range of optics and features allows the fixture to be used in a great variety of applications such as film and television production, broadcast, theater, live entertainment, and even still photography. The fixture’s ability to throw light long distances with its open face or projection optics, while at the same time being able to serve as a soft light, brings the flexibility needed on today’s fast-paced film sets.
