The Laserworld Diode Series is a well-established laser product line in the market, which has become more and more popular. In particular, people wanting to take the step from hobbyist laser use to a semi-pro level decide to go for a pure diode system, as it contains many professional features at a low pricing level.
Events become more and more spectacular, and thus the demand for durable laser systems increases. HB-Laser launched a new IP68 waterproof laser line. These new LightCube 851 show laser light projectors are submergeable up to 3m depth. Of course they are fully graphics capable and equipped with the latest diode laser technology with a pure diode setup. The Apollo ScannerMax scanners (with Pangolin ScannerMax scanners and Apollo driver) run at ca. 45kpps @ 8° and make the LightCube 851 perfect for professional laser show applications.
Laserworld has announced the release of the new RTI PIKO RGB 11 Pure Diode as laser light system for professional applications.
The PIKO RGB 11 PD has a guaranteed output power of 10W RGB after aperture and is equipped with diode laser sources. This ensures a great, linear colour fading behaviour and makes the unit perfect for professional projections as well as for smooth beam shows. The compact PIKO-housing makes the PIKO RGB 11 PD great for touring applications, rentals as well as for fixed installations.
