| Title: |
Trimmer Iris For Use With a Digitally Shape-Controlled Lighting System |
| Abstract: |
An electronic projection device stores a library of images used for gobos,
or light shaping devices, to shape the light. Those gobos each have a
specified size. A device adjusts the amount of ligth which passes based on
the size information about a gobo. The size of the image is automatically
determined, and maximize is used to adjust the amount of opening of a
mechanical device, such as a motor driven iris. In this way, the motor
driven iris can automatically open to a size that is based on the image
information.
