In Paris City Hall, the G-Spots animate the ice rink

Every year, Mairie de Paris (Paris City Hall) turns the square in front of the building into an ice rink for the citizens of Paris to enjoy ice skating during the winter. This year technical audiovisual specialist, Novelty Group, has chosen to animate the ice rink with the G-Spots, LED IP-65 moving head from the Danish manufacturer SGM.

So far, the standard moving heads led to operation and maintenance problems, in particular in this period of the year. In addition to the rain and the snow, it involved the costly and complex installation (technically and esthetically) of protection domes. But the problem of humidity and condensation during night was persisting with this type of fixtures.

Moreover, the power of the LEDs turn out to be particularly adapted to project gobos and colors, even in an unfavorable environment, with discharge white source in principal lighting.
