ThorDMX: a prototyping toolkit for interactive stage lighting control

Published: 27 April 2013 Publication History

Abstract

ThorDMX is a lightweight prototyping toolkit for rapid and easy design of new stage lighting controllers. The toolkit provides a framework, code samples and tutorials for quickly developing new controller interfaces using familiar prototyping tools and software. Aimed at prototyping interaction designs for stage lighting control it facilitates the exploration of expressive, collaborative and flexible new interfaces.
