Martin Professional Introduces the VC-StripMartin Professional announces the launch of the new VC-Strip family of narrow LED video strips. VC-Strips are ideal for integration into stage and set designs, as well as interiors like bars, ceilings, and walls. Fully compatible with Martin's VC-Grid LED video module, the company says they can be used together for more creative LED video designs. VC-Strips are fully pixel-level calibrated on brightness and colors for optimal uniformity and quality and are driven by Martin's award-winning P3 System Controller family for smooth playback that according to the company, outperforms any DMX-based system. These flexible video strips feature a pixel pitch of 25mm and are available in lengths up to 400mm. They can even be cut to required length on-site. VC-Strips are available in RGB, warm white, medium white, and cool white variants. The RGB version has a calibrated brightness of 4,000 nits while the warm / medium / cool white versions have a calibrated brightness of 8,500 nits. As VC-Strips are driven by Martin's P3 System Controller family, they run true video so no need to worry about stuttering, uneven dimming, or lack of synchronization. The daisy-chain limitations imposed by DMX-driven solutions have been taken out of the equation as VC-Strips run on the P3 protocol. As with all Martin LED video products, the VC-Strips are fitted with color temperature control, color target control, and gamma curve control, while they perform at the same frame rate as the user's video source. VC-Strips are fed with power and data via Martin's P3 PowerPort 1500, which enables daisy-chains up to 18m and, unlike DMX-based solutions, requires few cables. Its four outputs mean that up to 72m of VC-Strips can be run from a single P3 PowerPort 1500. To reduce complexity even further, the company notes VC-Strips require no other external box to work. The user can forget about addressing and complicated mapping procedures. Map visually on the P3 System Controller by simple drag and drop; the company says there is no need to address every individual VC-Strip. ![](/std_images/blank.gif)
