Our approach includes the development of intuitive user interfaces and collision avoidance mechanisms
Automation in stage control revolutionises theatrical productions by employing automated systems to manage various stage elements, enhancing the overall performance and spectacle.
ELPLANT’s technological excellence is reflected in their ability to design custom control systems, develop software for distributed control, and integrate complex mechanisms to ensure dynamicity and safety. Our approach includes the development of intuitive user interfaces and collision avoidance mechanisms, demonstrating their commitment not only to technological advancement but also to user safety.
Projects
Stage Theater Automation System
One of our most complex undertakings involved the complete stage automation systems for modern theater productions, integrating over 120 different types of axes controlled by more than 30 industrial computers. This project exemplified our capability in synchronizing movement, ensuring safety, and managing real-time communication, setting a new standard in stage automation technology.
Projects like PAC NY, the renovation of the Studebaker Theater in Chicago, and the development of the James and Anne Duderstadt Center at the University of Michigan are just some examples of ELPLANT’s global presence.
The realization of these projects, carried out in collaboration with renowned partners such as “The Chicago Flyhouse, Inc,” highlights ELPLANT’s ability to share its knowledge and innovations worldwide, contributing to local communities and the broader educational and cultural landscape.
