ETC Networking Partners Program Expands with ArKaos
ETC’s Networking Partner Program now includes Belgian software developer ArKaos, a world-leading provider of media server technology for live visual performance. The Networking Partner Program allows select vendors to implement ETC protocols, including ETCNet2, in their products. The program gives partners access to the proven power of ETC networking, while also increasing the value of ETC systems installed all over the world.
As a result, ArKaos will be showing the latest version of their popular ArKaos product, the ArKaos 3.5 ETC Edition, on the ATF stand L51 at the SIEL 2006 trade fair. A software-based visual synthesizer that runs on a normal PC or Mac, ArKaos 3.5 ETC Edition is a tool for lighting designers or visual artists to create and control amazing visual projections. At SIEL the application will be connecting via ETCNet2 with ETC’s new Congo console. The ArKaos product will be become available after SIEL.
“As control-hungry devices like media servers move into the mainstream, our network offers the best option for controlling them,” explains ETC Marketing Manager David Lincecum. “Also, as our console users further their employment of visualisation software capabilities, we allow them direct access to the wide array of products on the market. Media servers are the newest area of lighting convergence, consuming hundreds of control addresses for a single unit. ETC’s networking protocol provides the best traffic management available for high capacity applications like media servers.”
Marco Hinic, CEO at ArKaos, concurs: “Exposing the capabilities of our latest Media Server software through ETCNet2 protocol allows us to reach a new level of integration between lighting and video technology.”
Other recent ETC networking partners include software companies Capture Sweden and ESP Studios, media display and server company Green Hippo and lighting controls company MA Lighting. Earlier members of this growing ETC club included CAST Lighting, Sand Network Systems and Pathway Connectivity.
