Hundreds of industry partners use Animated Lighting's software and hardware products to build outstanding presentations and displays, install impactful permanent lighting, and achieve intelligent fixture control. These partners include: Seasonal and Special Event Partners Animated Lighting works directly with several national and worldwide companies that specialize in providing presentations and displays at seasonal and special events. These companies have established teams and representatives that create concepts and designs as well as install, maintain, and remove displays. Typical customers for these companies are shopping centers, towns, cities, parks, and commercial property developments.   In working with these partners, Animated Lighting assists in the development of concepts, specifications, and electrical requirements and then provides our controllers as an integrated part of the Partner's overall offering. Animated Lighting's Project Team often goes onsite for initial project start-up and final presentation programming and adjustment.   Typically, these Partners take the lead role in working directly with the customers while Animated Lighting works directly with the Partners to provide our part of the overall customer solution.   Light Designers Animated Lighting's products and services offer distinct advantages for light designers.   Typically light, sound, and animation companies develop controllers that work specifically with their own products. If a project has several different requirements, light designers are forced to work with numerous controllers that focus on a single task without the ability to communicate with each other. In the end, light designers have a diffcult time gaining overall control of the project.   Animated Lighting's controllers are industry unique with their abilities to work with "Every Light, Every Sound, Every Action." This means light designers can manage and control fixtures from numerous manufacturers with one powerful product family of software and hardware controllers from Animated Lighting.   Light designers typically bid Animated Lighting controllers into their projects. Animated Lighting additionally contracts with light designers to assist with concept development and specifications on projects.   Technology Partners and OEMs Fixture manufacturer's controllers are normally limited in two ways. First, they are made exclusively to address only their own fixtures using proprietary protocols. Second, these controllers are limited because they are not made to address the overall requirements of a project.   Animated Lighting software and hardware controllers offer several critical advantages for our technology and OEM partners including: Distributed Intelligent Control Animated Lighting's controls are software and hardware solutions that are created to work in a networked and wireless infrastructure   Remote Access Because Animated Lighting is created to work in a distributed environment, we also have the ability to remotely access, program, test, and even visualize the fixtures via webcams and Web sites.   Powerful Software Animated Lighting provides our Technology Partners a powerful programming language (Animation Control Language or "ACL") and application (Animation Director) that provides unparalleled control over fixtures. Animated Lighting's focus on software allows our Technology Partners and OEMs to embed and bundle the most sophisticated control software available while they stay focused on their own hardware development.   Animation Director and ACL are mature, robust technologies for managing an entire project or show with rich control over channels (up to 4,096 channels per Monster Brain with each channel individually timed and controlled), multiple routines, lighting effects (up to 255 intensity settings for maximum load management and visual effects such as ramps, blinks, fades, sparkles, flickers and shimmers), inputs, outputs and servos (for support of music, sounds and animations).
