ADJ's DOTZ Matrix is a RGB Wash / Blinder / Matrix in One UnitADJ launches their next LED effects with the DOTZ Matrix, a color wash / blinder / matrix panel powered by advanced COB (chip on board) LED technology. This versatile 13.75" x 6.75" x 14.75" (345 x 170 x 370 mm) panel is bright, thanks to its 16 30W tri-color COB LEDs. Brighter than traditional surface mount (SMD) LEDs, COB LEDs differ from their predecessors in that multiple LED diodes are mounted directly onto the circuit board as one lighting module. This new technology creates a more powerful LED engine in less space with shorter interconnection lengths, resulting in a stronger output and vibrant colors. In addition to its brightness, the DOTZ Matrix is versatile, with the ability to perform as three different types of effects: an RGB color wash, an audience blinder, or a pixel matrix effect. Its tri-color (red, green, blue) LEDs provide smooth color blending and rich, robust palettes. The panel also has pixel mapping capabilities for creating stunning eye candy effects. Users can control individual pixels in 48-channel and 52-channel DMX modes, and there are four Pixel Flip options for changing pixel orientation. The DOTZ Matrix has 430W output and a 60-degree beam angle. "The DOTZ Matrix takes LED color wash panels to a whole new level of excitement, energy, and versatility," said Alfred Gonzales, national sales manager for ADJ. "As ADJ has done throughout its history, we take great pride in bringing this major advance in lighting technology -- COB LEDs -- to our customers. We believe that the DOTZ Matrix represents the beginning of a whole new era in LED-powered effects. Anyone who sees it will immediately be impressed by its superior power and brightness, not to mention the amazing pixel effects you can create with it." The DOTZ Matrix is loaded with features, including: 0-100% electronic dimming, five selectable dim curves (standard, stage, TV, architectural, and theatre), a strobe/pulse effect, built-in preset colors and programs, and a variety of operational modes (auto, sound active, manual RGB dimmer, static color, and DMX-512). Its bright output and flicker-free operation make it ideal for video/broadcast use, in addition to entertainment lighting the company says. When used with a DMX controller, there are five DMX channel mode options to choose from (3-, 6-, 7-, 48-, and 52-channel). The DOTZ Matrix is also RDM (Remote Device Management) compliant. It features three- and five-pin DMX connectors, and PowerCon in/out to daisy chain power for up to five units at 120V and nine units at 230V on one. A four-button LCD display on the rear panel provides easy access to the fixture's settings. The DOTZ Matrix is fan cooled and comes with a hanging yoke and a multi-voltage auto-sensing power supply: AC 100V-240V, 50/60 Hz. The panel weighs 18lb (7.8kg) and measures 13.75" x 6.75" x 14.75" (345 x 170 x 370 mm). Follow the URL below to see the DOTZ Matrix in action. ![](/std_images/blank.gif)
