We are thrilled to be part of the world’s first installation of Digital Projection's cutting-edge new Satellite Modular Laser System (MLS) projectors at Curtin University HIVE. A case study detailing this exciting project has just been published.

This ingenious new technology offers a small number of simple building blocks that allows users to address a wide range of applications, from single projector installs to complex, multi-channel domes, caves and simulators.

The cornerstone of the system is the separation of the light source, with its associated power and thermal management, to a remote location, which enables a small, compact projection ‘Head’ that only contains the minimal optical and video processing.

The projector ‘Head’ is fundamentally compact, quiet, light-weight and consumes very little power. This offers huge benefits at every stage of a system design, from transportation and installation to serviceability and lifespan. By separating the projection Head from the light source and linking the two by robust and flexible fibre-optic cables up to 100m long, [Digital Projection](https://www.ambertech.com.au/brands/digital-projection)’s latest innovation offers the installer many more options, particularly where space and access are restricted.

Where RGB laser illumination used to be the preserve of only very high-end applications, the Digital Projection Satellite MLS system will make this technology accessible to the wider AV market, at a cost-effective price point.

The Satellite MLS is developed around WUXGA, Native 4K and 8K resolutions and will also incorporate [Digital Projection](https://www.ambertech.com.au/brands/digital-projection)’s industry leading ‘MultiView’ technology.

Given the modular design of the system, there can be a one-to-many, or many-to-one relationship between the light sources and the projection Heads.

In addition to the many logistical, installation and performance benefits of Satellite MLS – including modularity, small size, low noise and low power consumption – users will benefit from enhanced system longevity with reduced need for servicing.

Each projection Head is designed with a closed-loop cooling system, essentially sealing all of the critical optical components from ingress of contaminants. A further benefit of the reduced thermal dissipation and small size is that supplementary environmental enclosures become easier to design and manufacture, further reducing total system costs and complexity.
