A light display system for projecting digitally generated light beams onto a stage display, comprising a housing rotatable about at least one axis, a deformable mirror device (DMD) having a surface comprising an array of deformable mirror cells, the DMD being mounted in the housing, a light source mounted in the housing for directing a light beam in an optical path that impinges upon the surface of the DMD, and digital control signals to the DMD for digitally activating selected deformable mirror cells of the DMD to reflect digitally selected light beams onto the stage display having the optical effect of a continuous moving image or images. The housing is rotatable about a second axis transverse to the first axis. Coloring devices can be mounted in the housing.

Digital micromirror stage lighting system

There is provided a digital light projection apparatus for projecting digitally selected light beams onto a stage display to create the effect of a continuously moving image. The apparatus has a fixed housing with a luminaire and a deformable micromirror device and a rotatable housing with a fixed mirror and a rotatable mirror. The deformable micromirror device directs selected light beams generated by the luminaire to the fixed and rotatable mirrors for projection to a stage display. Color may be achieved by use of color wheels, chromatic prisms, and/or lasers.

Digital light protection apparatus with digital micromirror device and rotatable housing

Base assembly for high voltage lamps and the like which includes a rotatable cover and spring loaded electrical contact elements to enabale easy insertion and withdrawal of electrically conductive prong shaped elements.

Lamp base assembly

A multilamp strip light luminaire system for illuminating a portion of a stage for an audience, including a housing forming a compartment having front wall defining a lamp port, a lamp positioned in the compartment having a light beam directed at the lamp port, the lamp including a dichroic reflector for passing infrared light and accompanying heat through the reflector away from the front side of the housing toward the back side of the housing, electrical wiring mounted in the housing for supplying electrical power to the lamp from a source of electrical power, vents located at first and second walls for passing heat generated by the lamp within the housing to the atmosphere, a rear vent located at the rear wall of the housing for passing heat passed by the lamp toward the back side of the housing from the housing to the atmosphere, and a baffle within the housing for blocking passage of light leaking from the lamp to the rear vent. A channel formed in the housing containing a portion of the electrical wiring, so that the electrical wiring is substantially isolated from the heat generated in the housing by the lamp.
