Aputure announced their new RGB light mats INFINIMAT, featuring pixel color control and the ability to control multiple lights from a single control box. The fixtures are quick to set up and can be combined or used individually. Let’s have a look!
Aputure continue expanding their catalog. This time they announced INFINIMAT, a versatile lighting solution that works in small spaces when used individually or in bigger productions when combined in large setups.
INFINIMATs are designed in the popular light mat form factor, and users have the option to configure them in a typical thin mat form or expand them using the fixture’s built-in inflatable diffusion. Users can quickly inflate smaller units or deflate them with the included air pump. In both cases, they offer pixel color control and configuring different lights from an INFINIMAT control box with dual dimming control systems. With this system, you can fine-tune even in very low light levels while keeping accurate colors.
According to Aputure, the INFINIMATs offer higher wattage than other mats and inflatables of similar sizes. The fixtures are a flexible solution in small scenarios when filming on location or they can be grouped for big productions. With a solid build and an IP65 rating, they also fit challenging weather conditions. Aputure also thought of documentary filmmakers when designing INFINIMAT, since they can easily transport the fixtures in options from 1’x2’, 1’x4’, and 2’x4’. They will be useful in challenging scenarios when you have to hide lighting fixtures, or even as practicals like computer screens, for example. For bigger scenarios and productions, Aputure offers large soft sources of 4’x4’, 8’x8’, and an expansive 20’x20’ option. The company is also planning to release more options in the future.
Finally, the INFINIMATs can be rigged and configured in different ways. The airbags give them a rigid shape, but they can also be mounted to their frames and brackets, be draped or suspended, giving users a versatile option for many different situations.
Aputure is still giving INFINIMAT its final touches, and they will begin shipping soon. For more information please visit Aputure’s website here.
