Alfalite has launched Skypix RGBW & IM, a series of ceiling-mounted LED panels designed specifically for virtual production environments.
It combines RGB video playback with an integrated white lighting channel to deliver more natural, coherent, and adaptable scenes from above.
With a 3.9 mm pixel pitch, up to 9,000 nits of RGB brightness, and a 7,680 Hz refresh rate, Skypix offers light control, a colour temperature range between 3,200–6,504ºK, and a TM-30 colour rendering index (Ra) of 90. Its average power consumption of just 35W (90W max) makes it an energy-efficient option for long studio sessions.
A standout feature of Skypix is its Invisible Marker (IM) system, which replaces traditional physical tracking markers with a virtual, invisible sticker compatible with existing tracking technologies. This system ensures accurate, real-time synchronisation and allows for the configuration of customisable IM constellations that embed metadata directly into the shoot.
Lighting control is managed through a dedicated application that enables real-time adjustment of both colour and intensity—by zone or by pixel—with user-defined presets tailored to production needs.
