Automation & Kinetics
Scenery that moves on cue. Winches, tracking, and kinetic rigs that hit their mark every night.
We build the moving scenery and run it closed-loop — winches, tracking, kinetics, and performer flying, all on position feedback. Cues hit their mark on the show clock, with an e-stop network and redundant drives behind every move.
Reference-grade, not a fixed rental list.

- Closed-loop
| Motion | Winches, tracking, turntables, lifts |
|---|---|
| Control | Position-feedback closed loop |
| Safety | E-stop network, redundant drives |
| Cue modes | Timecode + manual |
Kinetic LightingWinch-driven fixtures and pixel orbs.
Winch-driven moving fixtures, pixel-sphere/orb arrays, and kabuki + reveal drops — choreographed motion as a lighting element.
- Winch fixtures
- Pixel orbs
- Kabuki
| Effects | Moving fixtures, orb arrays, reveal drops |
|---|---|
| Motion | Variable-speed winches |
| Control | Closed-loop, timecode-locked |
| Integration | Sequenced with lighting cues |
Performer FlyingRated flying systems with an operator of record.
Rated performer-flying systems and variable-speed performer hoists, run by an operator of record with position-feedback control and redundant drives.
- Rated
- Operator of record
- Redundant drives
| Systems | Rated flying, variable-speed hoists |
|---|---|
| Operation | Operator of record |
| Control | Position feedback, e-stop |
| Redundancy | Redundant drives, inspected |
What makes it frame-accurate.
- Position-feedback closed loop.
- E-stop network; timecode + manual cue modes.
- Redundant drives on show-critical motion.
