Scan laser beams over a very wide angle
In a disco or nightclub, you often want beams to fill the space. But it is difficult when lighting trusses are so close to the club patrons, and conventional laser projectors can only scan about 60°. The solution is Discoscan, a super-wide- angle lens designed specifically for laser projectors. Laser beams can go anywhere in a 360° hemisphere. For example, put a Discoscan-equipped projector near the center of your lighting rig, pointed straight down at the dance floor. Beams will hit all four walls, as well as every corner of the floor. (Of course, you should always take appropriate laser safety precautions when scanning beams into an audience.)
You can even do graphics with Discoscan, as shown in the photo. Imagine the name of your disco or the evening’s DJ, projected on the floor along with an array of beams!
