Electronic Theater Controls Indoor Architectural Lighting

Since its founding by Fred Foster in 1975, ETC (Electronic Theatre Controls, Inc.) has become a global leader in award-winning entertainment and architectural lighting equipment. ETC's fixtures, lighting control consoles, dimmers and distribution products are the backbone of lighting systems in venues worldwide - from schools and churches, to community theaters and TV studios, to opera houses and theme parks. Over the first decade of its history, ETC earned a reputation for sophisticated microprocessor-based lighting control consoles. By 1990, ETC had acquired Lighting Methods, Inc., a Rochester, New York-based manufacturer of entertainment dimming systems. ETC quickly became one of the largest fully-integrated entertainment lighting control manufacturers in North America, with offices in Middleton, WI; Orlando, FL; Rochester, NY; and Hollywood, CA. The next phase of growth began in 1995, when ETC acquired the lighting control division of London-based distributor ARRI GB. That same year, ETC opened an office in Hong Kong, extending its expansion into Asia. In 1997, ETC opened an office in Copenhagen, Denmark, to serve the Northern European market, and a year later opened an office in Rome, allowing greater access to Southern Europe. ETC acquired Transtechnik Lichtsysteme, Holzkirchen, Germany in 2002, widening ETC's market potential in Europe. Continuing its growth, ETC took an equity position in Avab France in 2003. In 2004, ETC acquired Dutch sine wave dimming manufacturer IES and its industrial weighing and measuring division Penko Engineering BV, both located in Veenendaal, the Netherlands. Beginning March 31, 2005, all formerly separate operations of ETC in Europe joined under the common corporate banner of ETC. ETC's new international headquarters, located in Middleton, WI (near the state capital Madison) serve as hub of global administration and manufacturing. Through the years, ETC has gained an industry-wide reputation for outstanding service and customer support. ETC not only maintains in-house, 24-hour Technical and Customer Service staffs, but an extensive network of factory-trained, authorized field service centers.

Indoor Architectural Lighting

Indoor architectural lighting is seen by its proponents as something of an art, as well as a science. Also called architectural lighting design, indoor architectural lighting is about carefully balancing the requirements of light in a building with the building’s aesthetics, and also the cost and energy efficiency of the indoor architectural lighting system. For example, in indoor hotel lighting or indoor museum lighting, it’s possible to analyze how much daylight the internal spaces of the building receive, using something called the Daylight Factor to calculate this. These calculations can be based on tabular data in smaller, simpler buildings, and then applied to its indoor architectural lighting design. However, if a specialist indoor architectural lighting design is required for indoor building lighting, then it’s better to use software programs or mathematical models to calculate the optimum amount of light that will be needed for the most aesthetically pleasing effect. Many types of lighting equipment can be used in indoor architectural lighting. One of the newest, but still not widespread is indoor LED lighting, which is slowly gaining popularity for its low cost and high energy efficiency. For now, LED lighting is not standard in indoor architectural lighting, as more conventional lighting systems are preferred. Indoor architectural lighting is often unique to each building, as a buildings furniture and the color of its walls and ceilings (and the materials) all effect the lighting. Rooms with walls and ceilings that are painted in dark colors, or have dark colored wall paper, seem to absorb the light more readily than light colored rooms, and so the light in the room will appear dimmer than it actually is. It also has the effect of making the room looks smaller in some circumstances. Indoor architectural lighting designers also need to take care of certain reflective surfaces in a room, such as its furnishings, which can cause undesired glare if they are too reflective.
