Lightmoves has successfully completed the installation of a custom engineered architectural lighting control solution for Sydney Olympic Park Precinct. Working from an initial design from Lighting Art & Science with Colin Barker and Richard Mason, the brief provided Sydney Olympic Park Authority with the ability to bring the precinct to life with light via a combination of Martin Professional Exterior LED fixtures, architectural lighting control systems and point to point wireless control.

Initially envisaged for the NRL State of Origin Game 2, the final architectural lighting control solution now provides the precinct operator with the ability to provide the public and event organisers an immersive experience with light.

The solution specified by Lighting Art & Science called for a sophisticated combination of control system integration across a geographically large precinct area to provide continuity of control and precinct appearance. This was achieved using Point-to-MultiPoint (PtMP) wireless devices strategically designed to be positioned across the precinct, allowing transmission of all lighting control protocols instantaneously for experiential consistency across the precinct.

Lightmoves prepared the scores of Martin 400 ext fixtures for outdoor use, fitted the appropriate lenses and glare shields and installed the Martin fixtures on custom made brackets. This installation included all communication cabling to the lighting designers’ specification and the final engineered solution represented a collaborative design and construct a solution.
