Astera Helios Tube Kit

The Astera Helios Wireless Pixel Tube Kit provides eight compact RGBMA LED pixel tubes, offering advanced colour mixing and individual pixel control for intricate lighting effects. Smaller than the Titan tubes, Helios tubes are perfect for fitting into tighter spaces or for more discreet practical lighting applications. Fully wireless with built-in batteries and CRMX support, this kit enables dynamic, cable-free illumination for narrative scenes, music videos, or creative set elements, controlled seamlessly via the AsteraApp.

Optimising for Limited Space
The shorter length of Helios tubes makes them incredibly practical for situations where space is at a premium. They are ideal for integrating into smaller practical fixtures within a scene, adding subtle accents, or when rigging in confined areas that longer tubes wouldn’t accommodate.

Precise Colour & Skin Tones
Leverage the advanced RGBMA colour engine (Red, Green, Blue, Mint, Amber LEDs) for exceptionally precise and richer colour rendition. This is particularly beneficial for rendering beautiful pastels and accurate skin tones, and for providing a wider, more nuanced tuneable white range, ensuring your subjects look their best.

Sophisticated Pixel Mapping
Explore the powerful pixel mapping capabilities. This enables designers to create sophisticated animated lighting sequences, flowing patterns, intricate chases, and reactive light displays that can synchronise with on-screen content or music, truly transforming the visual landscape of your production.

Seamless Wireless Workflow
The combination of integrated batteries and CRMX wireless DMX, along with the intuitive AsteraApp, provides an unparalleled wireless workflow. This offers maximum freedom in setup and real-time control, significantly minimising cabling hassles and allowing for rapid, dynamic adjustments.

Reliability for Demanding Events
While compact, these Helios tubes are built to Astera’s high standards, making them robust and suitable for demanding professional film sets as well as high-energy live event productions. Their durability ensures consistent performance in challenging environments.
