Feature set description

[KKallas]

• [ ] User Stories (DMX, manual, WiFi?) VP set production

• Gaffer

  • Prep Drawings, sim (UE with some open source assets should do it)
  • Equipment List (.csv export from UE, some simple presets so we could make some interfaces to 3rd part software)
  • What other HW is needed to use the lamps
  • Technical Crew needed

• Rigging Gaffer

  • Needs to know where to put it (Can we use UE or need to get some simpler software? LoFi render mode?)
  • Store lamp id on the blueprint (Phone app??? don't want to make a new phone app what would be the easier way if lamp does not have power or DMX connection yet)

• Board OP

  • Remotely set and read addresses (RDM)
  • test response (RDM, DMX)
  • select specific sets of lamps (Unreal asset sets and adjustment controllers for easy remote management)
  • change values as absolute or relative (Single set RGBtf controls in UE props?)
  • add timed effects

• Board OP assistant (Needs to remotely set and read addresses, test response, mark physical locations of the lamps)

• Set tech (Needs to remotely set and read addresses, test response, mark physical locations of the lamps, replace a lamp with an issue)

• [ ] Communication Features Only DMX-RDM (WiFi, BLE, DoDC will be added with modules)

• [x] Electronics Features

• LEDs, Enable All, Fan, I2C(Temp Sensor), Buttons, External port switch, WS LEDs, Encoder, SD Card

• Inputs: R,G,B, temp [2800-10000K], fixture temp [20-80]

• [x] Manufacturing/Calibration features

• All channels are internally 16bit and down sampled to 11 only at output

• Calibrations are 2800,3200,4800,5600,10000 [0.1%,33%,50%,66%,100%] interpolated between keys by map

• Output curve is gamma 2.2

• Calibrations are saved as Arduino Arrays and burned on through Arduino programming interface

• For calibration there is iPython notebook and repo [todo]

Simplest Cinema Quality Fixture (Control) for VP / Lighting control

• Certification agency

• Turnkey Solutions / Support

• Rental / subrent from Owners

• User stories for Screen Owners

  • Owner
    • If the owner does not own any equipment then DS is better bang for the buck than Arri
    • If they own equipment they can use the dongle to get started
    • Support can be provided by local workshop
    • Hollywood quality that can be locally built
    • Need to be able to brag how many units, how many qualified engineers
  • DP (knows the quality and workflow, only if DS certified)
  • Gaffer (knows local crew capability and uses same tools for preparation)
  • Board Op (Personal Value?)
  • Board Assistant (Know workflow tools, python install scripts ie. Kubernetes)
  • Electrician (Can learn at home, prep data)
