We are excited to announce a new partnership with LCA, bringing three new EMP Designs products to their range: the PT-100 Plug Top Dimmer, S6 LED Controller and Bridge Duo wireless gateway. Alongside the popular SetSync PD-8 and iL2200, these additions provide professional lighting and wireless control solutions for film, TV and live production users. Learn more at Set-Sync.com.

Bespoke Practical Effects Buttons for Sets and Props

Take a behind-the-scenes look at how our custom pixel balls are manufactured in-house, from PCB production through to final assembly, ensuring quality and flexibility for bespoke lighting projects.

We’re showcasing a fun project where we completely redesigned a dance floor’s lighting control system. By replacing a complex network of cables and power supplies with a bespoke solution, we created a setup that’s simpler, cleaner, and easier to control — and even added custom dancing poles to complete the experience.

This project demonstrates a custom-designed, pixel-controlled LED pyramid, engineered in-house from PCB through to assembly. Each face of the structure is populated to ensure uniform illumination across the 3D form, while full pixel control enables dynamic animations and effects, transforming the pyramid into a fully programmable lighting feature.

This project explores a reusable LED alternative to chemical glow sticks, using a high-density cylindrical LED layout, custom 3D-printed diffusion system, and PX1-based control electronics to achieve uniform 360° illumination and precise colour tuning within a compact form factor.

We set out to recreate the natural, unpredictable flicker of real flame using programmable LED technology. By combining PX1-driven control with careful diffusion techniques, this project demonstrates how dynamic, lifelike fire effects can be achieved with precision, consistency, and full creative flexibility.

Individually controllable LEDs enable seamless pixel-mapped animations across the entire sphere, creating a fully programmable 3D display.

Designed for integration into compact props, the LED Disk combines our proven control technology with onboard LEDs in a single, space-efficient unit. Derived from the PX1 controller, this solution brings full control capability into extremely tight form factors, making it ideal for applications where space is limited but performance cannot be compromised. To meet strict size constraints, the unit is powered by a rechargeable coin cell battery, allowing the entire assembly to

Flicker Tester – Bespoke LED Camera Testing Controller

A portable, fully wireless spherical light source that could be positioned freely around a film set and controlled remotely in real time.

In the example shown here, we used our PX1-R technology, and embedded the controller directly into a bespoke PCB, designed around the prop requirements, not the other way around.

Every LED ball we create is driven by the specific needs of the production.
