Notable Features
After years Canada’s National Arts Centre has undergone a structural and technical upgrade of its performance lighting systems with the creation of four new performance spaces as part of the new lobby addition. The seamless integration of a building wide lighting network allows for operations, end users, and touring productions to quickly access and mount productions that extend seamlessly from the production venues into the open concept lobbies. Sensor IQ breaker panels are distributed throughout the venue allowing for remote monitoring and control of performance lighting loads and architectural systems building wide. A fiber optic infrastructure allows operations as well as technical services to trouble shoot and deploy network solutions efficiently. Paradigm central control system utilizing the LightDesigner software allows for energy conservation and proactive load shedding for a more eco-friendly carbon footprint on a daily basis.
