Follow-Me will present two of its latest products to the US market at LDI 2024.
Follow-Me offers flexible tracking solutions that scale with the size of the show. Its Follow-Me 3D and Follow-Me Track-iT technologies allow users to merge and integrate with any lighting console, video, sound and automation system on the market.
The Follow-Me system is independent from any fixture manufacturer and can control any lighting fixture that can pan and tilt. Fixtures can be used not only as follow spots, but also as general lighting and effects, while multiple fixtures can be allocated per performer using a single system. With Follow-Me Track-iT, users have access to a live view of the tracking area via the camera feed for both manual and automated operation, and can switch between manual and automated tracking.
Follow-Me has made advancements to improve fixture handling, integration, and user experience. At LDI 2024, the company will show two new pieces of hardware; the Follow-Me Track-iT Weatherproof Anchor, built for outdoor durability in challenging environments, and the Follow-Me Track-iT Tag in black.
The company is also showcasing a brand new software version with improved fixture refinement and enhanced aiming modes for lighting. The Proximity feature allows dynamic control of conventional lights based on performer position, a feature that has been successfully implemented on shows for acts such as Rammstein, Ed Sheeran and The Rolling Stones, demonstrating its transformative impact on lighting design.
“Our priority is providing tools that simplify complex productions while enhancing creative control. We are thrilled to showcase these new advancements at LDI,” said Tim van Dijck, Product Manager at Follow-Me. “These updates showcase our commitment to continuous improvement, making Follow-Me more versatile, efficient, and easier to use than ever before.”
Chris Lose, Follow-Me’s North American Designer Relations Manager, will join a panel representing the cutting edge of tracking technology and visual computing on Sunday December 8. The session, entitled ‘Tracking And Visual Computing In Live Entertainment Design’, will discuss how far visual computing, 3D-tracking and 3D synchronisation technology has come in the entertainment industry.
