SPECTACULAR MOMENTS

motion control for nightclubs

The phrase “superclub” was first coined in 1995. It rose out of the English club scene and has spread out over every continent. The nightclubs found in major cities around the world today are extraordinary. The bring people together in a bond of music, dance, light, and the experience. They elevate all the senses in an mind-blowing display of the entertainment experience.

Guests are drawn in by the headliner and house DJs that spin the music, they dance, they spin, they get wrapped up in the space and come back for more night after night.

Creative show designers are continually pushing the envelope in their delivery of synchronized video, motion, lighting, and audio to produce those moments that grab the guest and leave them wanting more. The vehicle that sculpts, connects, and harmonizes all these activities… is Raynok.

The Results of Raynok

The foundation of Raynok hardware and software is a long collaborated partnership between the Raynok team and those who use it. Show designers, operators, technicians, and artist have all had a hand influencing its development, allowing us to achieve nothing short of excellence. This pairing is the essence ingredient , “the rub”, which makes Raynok special. Raynok is; the extension, the possibility, the imagination and the execution of the creative artist.

Our goal has always been the same; build powerful tools that allow the artists and creative to see, achieve, and reach their potential.

We also understand that not every artist paints with the same brush. Not every installation is the same or has the same need. The Raynok Motion Control System has the software and hardware to meet those needs.

Before the audience enters the building to take in the experience, there is the creative building stage. Show designers sketch the ideas, technicians build the ques, and creative artists focus the combined energy into a vision. The tools and interface must be intuitive, quick, and visually inspiring. Raynok niches its products to the creator’s and the operator’s needs and requirements, so that we can exceed expecations.

Some events need no interface representation, while others look for every nuance of motion in a 3D space. The developers of Raynok understand this and it is exactly why we have designed the tools to accommodate every level of our user’s visual need.

You should not have to think about your automation hardware and software, it should just do.

Raynok Motion Control Video

This is a short video that features moving architectural elements and lighting trusses in some of the hottest nightclubs from Seol, to Singapore, to Las Vegas.

Each of these clubs uses the moving element to enhance the impact of the lighting effects and, for lack of a better phrase, to bring the house down!

Nightclubs present a fascinating and fun technical challenges for a supplier of Motion Control Systems. The clubs are filled with loud, boistrous activity. They are usually tightly spaced keeping the guests close to the action. The DJs are big personalities and their fan base is feverishly loyal.

Systems need to operate reliably night after night and in many, if not all, cases within the zone occupied by the guests becuase this is a big part of the guest experience.

The equipment has to be safe, above all else, and it may have to perform specific tasks when it comes to life safety to clear a path for building services to do its work all the while being ready to be the centre of attention. To be the centre of attention it has to be imensly flexible, easy to program, easy to alter, and did we mention safe to operate?

The developers and engineers behind Raynok have carefully chosen hardware to meet with the rigorous demands of this environment. Back-end software runs constant error and safety checks. Updates, alarms, and error reports are provided to the operator in customizable visual presentation (did we say these rooms are loud?). The Operator UI is intuitively laid out and contains specialized features to guide the operator through on-the-fly changes.

Raynok is truly innovative in this way. It focuses on keeping the operator informed of everthing that is going on. Our mantra is to warn-and-inform the operator so that they can make intelligent decisions and play a part in guest safety while creating a dazzling guest experience.

Raynok Hardware is where the cue data is processed and turned into motion.
