Kyalami

In 2015, AYRTON launched the revolutionary MAGICDOT, an exceptional and utterly creative luminaire that sold by the thousands within months, earning numerous awards worldwide. Nine years later, with solid experience in making laser source luminaires, AYRTON has developed KYALAMI, the first phosphor laser source luminaire in its Creative Solution series based on the MAGICDOT concept. The essential performance capability of KYALAMI is based on its unique design, extreme miniaturisation, and a minimalist cylindrical footprint that allows multiple luminaires to be installed only a few centimetres apart. A sphere of only 265 mm incorporates its 100 W laser module with a cooling system and optics. KYALAMI offers a next generation speckle-free laser source designed for rendering a D65 white point that allows perfect colour reproduction. It pushes all the limits when it comes to beam definition, with native contrast never before achieved by a digital light source, an incredible 1° beam angle, and an extreme range of focus that permits the beam shape to be adjusted according to the operating distance.

A 126 mm front lens positioned in the continuity of the sphere provides KYALAMI with a unique visual signature. The proprietary three-lens optical system produces an intensive 1° beam, delivering a record luminous flux of 400,000 lux at 10 m. KYALAMI is provided with a highly innovative colour section including a high-definition CMY colour mixing system and a multi-position instant access colour wheel equipped with five corrective filters, and 17 complementary colour filters. KYALAMI has unrivalled graphics capability, offering a wide choice of 29 fixed metal gobos designed to sculpt light in “beam” mode. These gobos can be blended with two individually combinable rotating prisms allowing you to produce a multitude of volumetric lighting effects. A light and heavy frost filter complete the graphic tool palette. KYALAMI adopts a minimalist style due to simplified waterproofing and the continuous rotation of the pan and tilt movement, increasing the possibilities for generating complex effects and making this luminaire a universal tool capable of meeting any challenge in all conditions. This new ultra-compact luminaire devised for architectural graphic effects offers incredible creative potential.
