feature & effect lighting

Lighting the way

As key players in the evolution of installed feature and effect lighting, Hutchison Technologies have carved out a niche as technical and creative disrupters. We innovate early and we innovate well, taking the best new lighting products and applying them in surprising ways, and introducing feature and effect lighting to surprising new applications.

Dawn of an era

After decades of stagnation and a relative lack of innovation, the lighting industry has been transformed by an explosion of ideas and tech. Partly to do with the coming-of-age of LED, partly to do with the recent stress on creative consumer engagement. All to do with empowering operators to use lighting like a pro, whatever their industry or aims.

Lighting the way

We’ve also developed unique expertise in integrated multimedia experiences that include lighting as an integral component. With so many projects and venues treating lighting like an afterthought or optional extra, we design integrated audio, visual, and lighting packages that guarantee richer and more effective experiences because the technology is perfectly in tune. Our lighting services and specialisms include:

The Internet of Light. What it is…

Traditionally, high temperatures and poor bulb life had made it difficult to integrate lighting into wider electronic networks. But LEDs have made it possible for operators to “smartify” their spaces by connecting lighting to device networks and control solutions via the net. That’s what the Internet of Light is – an amazing new world of intelligent lighting that’s already let us create some of the most spectacular bespoke lighting seen outside of professional arena displays.

Think LED tape with individual, digitally-controllable pixels; or an EQ link for setting lighting to the beat; or of the freedom to choose from a range of pre-programmed sequences one day, and to freestyle your lighting the next; or of intelligent installations in hospitality and retail that can respond to human behaviour and tailor the customer experience to match.

…how we can help you control it

The crux is in the control, so imagine doing all of this with the ease and precision of a simple flick of the wrist? Hutchison Technologies specialise in bespoke lighting control solutions – from the breakthrough software behind the scenes, right through to our proprietary customised iPads and bespoke branded interface solutions.

When it comes to the next generation of feature and effect lighting, the possibilities are realistically endless. Hutchison Technologies can give you the tools to bring your very own vision to life.

    Blaze has been a spectacular success. The lighting doesn’t just look amazing – it’s that Hutchison’s really understands how behind-the-scenes functionality impacts our member experience. More engaged instructors make for happier and harder working members, which means we’re happy too!
