Product description

ARRI Orbiter Black

The Orbiter is an ultra-bright, adjustable and directional LED fixture from ARRI. All systems in Orbiter are completely new and designed with versatility in mind.

ARRI introduces Orbiter, a new LED fixture that is poised to change the way the industry views digital lighting.

Orbiter is an ultra-bright, adjustable and directional LED fixture and is the most technologically advanced fixture ever produced for image capture and color rendering. All systems in Orbiter are completely new and are designed with versatility in mind. Orbiter's key features are a variety of optics, including: open face, projection, dome, and light banks; the ARRI Spectra six-color wide-gamut light engine; extremely powerful output for maximum brightness and perfect colours; the lighting control system (LiOS) with powerful software functions; integrated color sensor for matching ambient light; weatherproof housing; a removable, intuitive control panel; perfectly smooth dimming to zero; a full range of connectors and sensors; and an internal power supply, wireless DMX and battery input. Orbiter's advanced technology and versatile design make it an optimal lamphead for today and tomorrow, with endless possibilities for updates, configurations and improvements.

Removable control panel
The Orbiter comes standard without a control panel. This is optionally available. With the out 4-inch color display, quick navigation buttons and integrated sensors, the Orbiter control panel is easy to use with a graphical user interface. Simplified menu structure and redesigned user interfaces provide operational overviews at a glance and clear screens. This intuitive design makes changing the color or finding a setting easier than ever before. In addition, the control panel is detachable and can be used by hand using a 5 or 15 m cable from the control panel.

Enhanced connectivity
Including a full suite of input and output connectors, Orbiter is prepared for digital communication today and tomorrow. Ethernet daisy chaining is now possible with two EtherCON ports supporting Art-Net 4, sACN, and TCP/IP. Two USB-A ports are used for LiOS updates and connection of third-party peripherals such as Wi-Fi USB dongles. LumenRadio’s CRMX solution is included, allowing for wireless DMX. Two 5-pin XLR DMX ports used for conventional DMX & RDM communication in and through, and a 3-pin XLR DC input for 48 V power station. An SD Card slot enables future expansion of the software. Finally, a USB-C port is available for computer communication and servicing.

Full suite of sensors
Included in Orbiter is a color sensor for measuring the ambient light, a 3-axis accelerometer and magnetometer for sensing the pan, tilt, roll, and heading of the fixture, heat sensors for keeping the LEDs and electronics at exactly the right temperature, and an ambient light sensor for automatically dimming the control panel display. All these sensors make for a better user experience and increased control over the fixture. Available data improve workflow also in postproduction and service.

Robust, weatherproof housing
The outer design of Orbiter meets the demands of heavy, daily usage. A new weatherproof housing enables outdoor application by using an aluminum cast body with bumpers made of reinforced plastic. The handle makes transport comfortable and allows for handheld operation due to perfect balance.

Large range of applications
Orbiter's wide range of optics and features allows the fixture to be used in a great variety of applications without compromising quality. Markets such as film and television production, broadcast, theater and live entertainment, and even still photography are just some examples of environments where Orbiter excels. The fixture’s ability to throw light long distances with its open face or projection optics, while at the same time being able to serve as a soft light, brings the flexibility needed on today’s fast-paced film sets. Orbiter’s projection optic will enable broadcasters to have controlled, high-quality light in the studio, and with its battery power, Orbiter can easily be used on the move. The projection optic is the key feature for the theater and live entertainment market and Orbiter also exceeds expectations for continuous lighting in still photography. All in all, Orbiter’s software innovations and connectivity make it the ultimate companion for dynamic lighting setups.
