Aptly named, the model MH-580 is an absolutely new effects
projector which employs an idea developed by the Russian government.
Light passes through a rotating color wheel and then through a
cylinder packed with fine optical fibers.
To create the cylinder, it requires 6.25 miles (10 kms) of fiber
optics! The resulting effect is reminiscent of liquid projection
effects, creating a seemingly crystalline, pixilated pattern of
shifting colors.
The AQUARIUS™ is able to generate a composition of continuously
changing luminous beams thus creating images very similar to the
fractal images created by computers. The projector can be used in
any environment. The AQUARIUS™ is an ideal decorative element which
can be made truly unique by the imagination of the lighting designer
or user. The projection on 3D objects guarantees a sure visual
effect. Its’ compact size makes it ideal for the majority of
applications. The combination of effect and lamp is ideal, and
incredible brightness is obtained from a low wattage light source.
The AQUARIUS™ doesn’t need to be connected to a remote controller.
The only adjustments are the rotation speed of the color wheel and
the rotation speed of the effect, made possible, thanks to two
potentiometers located on the rear of the projector.
