| Title: |
Theatrical Lighting System With Moving Lights |
| Abstract: |
A light is mounted on each one of a plurality of movable light supporting
carts. The carts are moved along a predefined path. The lights can be
energized to produce light beams as the carts move. Alternatively, the
lights may remain off as the carts are controllably moved along the path
to position each cart at a selected location along the path, and the
lights energized after the carts are position. The carts, or selected
carts, can be controllably moved at a selectably variable speed or speeds
and/or in a selectably variable direction or directions while the lights
are energized to produce the light beams. The lights themselves can be
controllably moved with respect to their respective support carts, to
controllably pan, tilt, swivel, etc. each light as the carts move, thereby
facilitating production of a wide range of illumination effects.
