Hey show technicians and DMX fans, we have something for you!
In our #showcar projects and demonstrators, we often need to control various types of lighting. Setting moods or attracting the attention of passers-by are just two examples of use-cases. The industry standard for this application is the DMX protocol, and there is a vast ecosystem of controllers, software applications, and lights that follow this standard. Our super-flexible LightNode does not natively "speak" DMX, but we have developed a DMX to CAN translator. The video briefly demonstrates how the moving faders of "Q Light Controller" control the color transitions of a light strip connected to our #AMPS LightNode. Of course, this can also be automated! If you want to learn more, just get in touch!
We have received the first A-samples of our new V2X ("Vehicle-to-X") Nodes!
V2X Nodes are part of our Advanced Modular Prototyping System #AMPS.
This is very exciting for us, since it's one of the most complex Nodes so far and packed with features.
This Node enables you to plug in a Raspberry Pi CM4 (or any other compatible alternative) as well as M.2 cards and Raspberry Pi HATs or even Adafruit FeatherWings. V2X radio is on-board.
V2X technology enables vehicle-to-(anything) communication, e.g. for traffic control, traffic warnings, etc.
