Statements
French company ETCAudiovisuel expanded the capabilities of large format projection by developing an accurate film scroller that allowed for basic scrolling animationof film transparencies opening the door to large scale multiple projector panoramas. Before long ETC began making their own projectors usinga Xenon light source because of its increased efficiency when used with long distance lenses. Eventually the PIGI system evolved to its currentform using double film scrollers mounted on a rotational turret. Modern robotic techniques are employed in order to achieve the extreme filmmovement and positioning accuracy required for large projector arrays.The PIGI system uses film transparencies that yield beautiful continuous tone high resolution images.Using a 6kw Xenon light source the PIGI projector is capable of upwards of 80,000 lumens of light output making them by far the most efficientand cost effective choice for covering large areas.
