Modernizing studio-based lighting control

ARRI Solutions’ engineers recognized a requirement from broadcast and production customers for automation withinfutureproofed studio-based lighting workflows, and at the end of 2020, selected intive as a full-service partner to bring thisinsight into a full solution design. Within the design phase, the team agreed the initial focus would be on a solution to supportmonitoring for large-scale studio lighting systems.

From a technology perspective, the solution had to accommodate for a large number of lighting and lighting support devices,many of which rely on legacy technologies, that have reduced bandwidth and are not in sync with today’s common networksystems.
Multi-layered application

intive’s development expertise would provide best practice forbuilding a multi-layered, web-based software solution toensure a highly flexible and reliable application forbroadcasters, media, and production facilities.

The back-end is written in Kotlin with Spring Boot. As a storagesolution we are using H2 Database. The front-end is developedin TypeScript with React & Redux, and the client is packagedas an Electron appliance.

Central monitoring and fault detection

ARRI LightNet was launched in 2021. The platform enables central monitoring and fault detection for complete lighting solutions in content production studio environments, independent of location. Alongside established monitoring systems for audio and video, ARRI LightNet now provides this important functionality to lighting networks.

Broadcasters can use the tool to monitor lighting fixtures, lighting control desks, network switches, DMX splitters and DMX nodes. Studio engineers can apply the same workflows that they are used to from other AV specialisms to the lighting system, ensuring smooth operation of modern production environments, where IP-based and DMX-controlled lighting systems are supported.
