APUTURE DEBUTS INFINIMAT & SIDUS PRO A puture has recently launched two trailblazing products promising to revolutionise lighting for filmmakers: the INFINIMAT and Sidus Pro. The INFINIMAT series features pixel-mappable RGB light mats with full-colour tunability, inflatable diffusion and can connect multiple mats to create larger panels. These flexible, weatherproof mats come in various sizes, from 1x2ft to an expansive 20x20ft, offering fantastic versatility and high output for productions large and small. The Sidus Pro ecosystem includes the Sidus One and the Sidus Link Pro app. Sidus One – a powerful universal transceiver – enables connection to any CRMX-enabled light, while the updated Sidus Link Pro app allows cue-based control of multiple lights with zero delay. This combination provides filmmakers with an intuitive, latency-free control system which simplifies lighting set-up and operation. With these innovations, Aputure continues to push the boundaries in enhancing creativity while simplifying technical challenges.
