This is very high complexity project aimed at replacing obsolete DMX remote control systems with more reliable and feature-rich software and hardware mix. The main goal is real time control of hundreds of light sources via PC in flexible and user-friendly manner.

One part of the project deals with the communicaitons protocol and the hardware able to implement it in real time without glitches. The other part of the project deals with PC applications software able to form autonomous lighting effects of very high complexity, able to reproduce on-screen images etc. In addition, the system will be able to operate fully autonomously without the PC by interpreting user commands issued via a standard IR remote control unit.

Target applications of the project include both home entertainment systems and more powerfull commercial systems such as those found at modern caffees and disco clubs. Although designed having in mind LED lighting systems, additional hardware components will be available, such as multiple channel 115/230V AC incandescent and halogen light bulb controllers, multiple channel motor actuators etc.
