Home Theater Lighting
Correct home theater lighting plays a crucial role in setting the right atmosphere for your home theater. Most would surely agree that for the best movie experience in the home theater, viewing should take place either in total darkness, or under very low ambient light, i.e. either with the lights switched off, or significantly dimmed. As already indicated earlier, light plays a critical role in the home theater. Too much ambient light in the room, as well as outside natural light coming from windows, can create glare on direct-view displays and washed-out images in the case of projection systems. In particular, projection systems would ideally require total darkness for the best image quality.
Home Theater Lighting Control Systems can range from a simple wall mountable dimmer switch that allows you to control the brightness level of an individual light or a series of connected lights, to the more sophisticated yet substantially expensive programmable lighting control systems that can control multiple channels - thus providing individual control for the different lighting fixtures in the room. These systems generally rely on the popular X10 Protocol to control the different lights. A single X10 transmitter can control up to 256 different devices. Among the prime advantage of X10 based systems is that they make use of either your existing electrical wiring to send information to small X10 receivers connected to your lighting fixtures, or wireless technology.
