New SeaChanger Prodigy Provides Color Mixing for White LED Fixtures

The new Prodigy color engine from SeaChanger is specifically engineered to provide color mixing for fixtures using a white LED light source. Prodigy gives users the same high color rendering and extensive palette achieved with traditional tungsten fixtures, while incorporating the energy efficiency of compatible LED technology. The new Prodigy also features a slimmer housing design and silent, fan-free operation with color changes in less than 0.3 seconds.

The SeaChanger Prodigy derives color from dichroic color wheels, not the light source. These CYMxG wheels are patterned to produce millions of colors and their non-absorbent filters reflect heat, making them inert to temperature damage and resistant to fading. Using the white LED and SeaChanger combination, the white LEDs are designed to be replaceable like a common theatrical lamp, thus making Prodigy a more sustainable solution as there is no need to replace the entire LED fixture.

SeaChanger Prodigy works in concert with customers’ white LED sources by featuring two DMX modes: four-channel “Legacy” CYMxG mode and a new five-channel “Prodigy” CYMxG+Dim mode, which activates dimming on the LED power outlet to customers’ white LED sources while simultaneously adjusting the color temperature to provide tungsten-like dimming.
