The CS10 is the latest laser system in the Light Vector Series by Image Engineering. It is a white balanced 10W RGB laser projector (100% diode) which has been specifically designed for audience scanning effects. The projector is fully DMX controllable, so it eliminates the need for a separate laser operator or software, and it seamlessly integrates into a production’s lighting rig.
