Aputure has released the Infinimat soft-light system.


Available in six sizes ranging from 1'x2' to 20'x20', the solution features inflatable airbags that give structure to the lights, make them quick to set up, compact to store and easy to position. The control boxes can run multiple mats, and Infinimats can be used in a variety of configurations: with or without airbags, mounted to frames, hanging from above or strapped into place.


Infinimats feature a tunable color RGBWW light engine with a CCT range of 2,000-10,000K and +/- Green bias control. Additional color control is available in HSIC+, xy, Gel and Pixel modes. The solutions comprise a series of 100-watt panels in 1'x2' or 2'x2'. Each panel is sealed with a metal plate within to disperse heat, a design that provides both IP65 weather protection and ruggedness. Each panel also functions as an addressable pixel, allowing the Infinimat to illuminate in gradients of brightness and color as well as work with control systems to feed in moving patterns for image-based lighting applications. The dimming system allows smooth dimming down to 0.1 percent while maintaining accurate color. Infinimats can be controlled through Sidus Mesh, DMX, CRMX, sACN and Art-Net.


Infinimat sizes are 1'x2', 1'x4', 2'x4', 4'x4', 8'x8' and 20'x20'. The 1x2, 1x4 and 2x4 mats pair with the 400-watt control box for portable kits that can run off battery power; the 4-by and 8-by mats utilize the 1,600-watt control box for a strong key or fill, and the 20-by mat is a system of four 8-by Infinimat kits and a 20-by airbag that ties them all together for a large source that can be rigged overhead or attached to rolling stands.


The 400-watt control box can power up to three of the smaller Infinimats, and the 1,600-watt control box can power up to three smaller ones and two larger ones. The 400-watt control box can also be powered by a pair of V-mount or Gold-mount batteries.


Aputure Infinimats list for $1,790-$78,900, depending on size. Each Infinimat kit includes the LED mat, an inflatable airbag, a control box, a skirt, a 40-degree grid, an electric air pump, power and head cables and mounting hardware.
