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. At only 18 channels, modeled after a typical moving light, the CS10 is simple to use, yet extremely versatile. The proprietary high speed scanning engine allows for the laser effect to be tighter and brighter, while still remaining safe and FDA compliant.
