BT ICE™ (Integrated Cooling Engine) – US and International Patent Pending Advanced Heat Sink Technology for LEDs and Electronics
Cooling for LEDs is critical in order to take advantage of the benefits LEDs offer – extremely long life, safe operation, low power consumption, etc. Our patent pending technology is incredibly efficient at dissipating the heat from LEDs. BRICKBLASTER Pro and MIRO Cube series fixture thermal management system can dissipate 50 watts of LED heat in a 4” cube – allowing them to be the smallest, pro grade fixtures in the world.
This technology is scalable and adaptable – contact us to see how we can integrate it into your products and projects.
BT DRIVE™ – Integrated High Speed PWM and DMX Generating Engine
BT DRIVE provides a fully integrated control and driver solution which can be integrated into your product line. The system features a full text, customizable and intuitive user interface along with a suite of DMX features.
Including:
- 8 or 16 Bit Full Speed Operation
- Tungsten Fade/Filament Mode – That provides internal signal processing which allows fixtures to mimic the dimming curve of incandescent fixtures
- Control Via Up to 2 Universes of DMX Down a Single 5 pin DMX Cable
BT DRIVE™ also is controllable via full speed DMX 512 and can also generate 56 channels of full speed DMX for synchronization of DMX controllable devices.
BT DRIVE™ is also capable of generating some of the highest possible PWM rates. High speed (4 kHz) Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) rates making it perfect for use in TV, film or anywhere that video will be captured.
BT DRIVE™ is integrated into the Rosco MIRO Cube product line and its predecessor, the BRICKBLASTER Pro product line. Please contact us to discuss ways we can integrate BT DRIVE into your products.
BT LIFE™ – Exchangeable LED Boards and Design Philosophy for Future Proofing and Maintenance of LED Products
LED technology is constantly changing – companies like Osram, CREE and Philips are advancing LED technology daily. Although advancements in chip technology allow for better products these advances also equal challenges for LED fixture manufacturers and end users.
Some of theses challenges include:
- Non-matching LEDs from lot-to-lot causing inconsistency in color and output
- New LED technology leads to faster product obsolescence for existing devices
Black Tank has developed technology and methodologies of development that help future proof the products we bring to market.
An example? All of our LED fixtures feature interchangeable and replaceable LED boards to allow end users to upgrade their fixtures as new LED technology becomes available and for maintenance/repair purposes.
BT Filter™ – Dichroic filtering on UV LED light
Black Tank has developed a custom UV filter which cuts unwanted visible light for use with UV LEDs. This amazing filter allows users to generate high impact black light effects while retaining all of the benefits of LED technology; including small form factor, long and maintenance free life span, low heat dissipation and dimmable output.
BT Filter™ is integrated into the Rosco MIRO Cube™ UV and its predecessor, the BRICKBLASTER UV. Please contact us to discuss ways we can integrate BT DRIVE™ into your products.
