Smart Monkeys, Inc., the show control specialist, has announced the integration of Pharos lighting controllers within the company’s modular AV management platform, the ISAAC Ecosystem.
Pharos Architectural Controls Limited, a manufacturer of dynamic lighting control solutions, will provide its scalable system of embedded lighting control hardware, which has been designed for enhanced reliability and performance.
The firm’s Pharos Designer 2 software is a free-of-charge, yet advanced interface for programming Pharos controllers, which can be run independently of the need for an external computer.
A powerful solution
Managing partner of Smart Monkeys, Stephan Villet, says: “In our favoured markets, such as themed entertainment, museums, and experience centres, Pharos controllers are a ubiquitous component of the audiovisual system design.
“Offering this powerful and seamless integration to our mutual users makes perfect sense.”
As a centralised management platform, ISAAC makes controlling entertainment and media systems easier, by providing end-users with a cohesive way to maintain connected environments.
Pharos lighting controllers can now be programmed for monitoring and scheduling with ISAAC.
“A gamechanger”
Strategic growth manager for Pharos Architectural Controls, Bas Hoksbergen says: “We are delighted with this new Smart Monkeys collaboration. Integrating our Pharos dynamic lighting controllers within the ISAAC ecosystem will be a game-changer for the people we both care most about, our customers. By coming together we have given these users a compelling solution that is easy to use, yet flexible enough to meet the needs of even the most demanding projects.”
The new partnership creates an ideal solution for operators looking to monitor and manage their technical systems from one location. The system is applicable to a wide range of environments such as amusement parks, airports, casinos, corporate lobbies, visitor centres, museums, urban spaces and more.
Earlier this year, Smart Monkeys, Inc. announced ISAAC Workspace 2.0, which offers a range of design and capability updates to the system.
