MUNICH, GERMANY – Kaiser Showtechnik GmbH, Astera’s exclusive distributor for Germany, illuminated the New Schleissheim Palace in Munich on Aug. 25, 2015. Astera says the setup, stretching more than 300 meters along the palace façade, was 100 percent wireless and the largest of its kind to ever take place, using more than 600 wireless Astera fixtures. The project made use of, and fully showed, the capabilities of Astera’s long-distance RF technology found within the AsteraBox™ and AsteraApp™, which has been integral to the industry’s acceptance of Astera as the standard for wireless lighting.

The production was to mark the beginning of Astera’s recently announced partnership with Kaiser Showtechnik, who produced the video, and their investment in marketing Astera for the German-speaking market. A 14-man production crew was brought in to organize the project and capture the beautiful effects, brought to fruition by lighting designer, Chris Schatz. The footage was then compiled and edited by CorneliusFilms.
The video can be seen on Astera’s Facebook and YouTube pages.
Commenting on the video, Sebastian Bückle, Sales & Marketing Director at Astera, said, “We’re delighted with the video. Finally the industry can see our lights for their intended purpose. The scope and power of the Astera system, as well as the technical ability, are on full show, and we couldn’t be happier with the result.”
The AX3 Lightdrop™; a 15W wireless, multi-use spotlight, was brought in to up-light all 150 window ledges, while the AX7 SpotLite™; our 60W wireless all-rounder, fitted with 30° diffusor sheets, was utilized as a building uplighter and garden illumination, and finally the AX10 Spotmax™; the most powerful wireless spotlight on the market, also fitted with 30° diffusor sheets, was used as a floodlight to add the finishing touches to the colorful event.
