Ikan studio lighting and teleprompters.

// lyra poe

One cable for power and control.

Lyra PoE fixtures run from an 802.3bt PoE switch and take Art-Net or sACN over the same cable, with a web interface for setup and a Q-SYS Designer plugin that reaches up to 256 fixtures per universe.

Ikan lists every Lyra PoE fixture as an installation product rather than a shelf item. The switch has to supply the power class each fixture needs, so we size the PoE budget before we quote.

The LBX8 low-profile panel and the LBF60Z zoom Fresnel also come in white, for rooms where a black fixture on a white ceiling is the wrong answer.

Rigging and multi-light kits

The fixtures take 5/8-inch and 1-1/8-inch pins and standard clamps. The LSH-POE telescoping hanger runs its Cat6 cable inside the pole, so a panel can drop from a pipe grid with no loose cable.

Ikan's three- and five-light Lyra PoE kits pair the fixtures with a NETGEAR PoE++ switch, and some include Light Deck.

// light deck

Lighting control on a computer or an iPad.

Light Deck is Ikan’s control software for Art-Net and sACN across multiple universes, with fixture patching, presets and a plot view. It runs on Mac, Windows and Linux, and an iPad can act as a wireless control surface.

Stream Deck and MIDI controllers can recall looks, and OSC or UDP commands let a control system trigger them. A license covers two computers.

// teleprompters

Prompters for studio, PTZ and desk cameras.

Choose by the camera behind the glass and the signal that carries the script.

  • Ikan Aura 19-inch teleprompter with the hood open, script text reflected on the glass and a green tally light

    PT419W-PTZ-NDI

    Aura 19" PTZ NDI

    A 1080p, 500-nit 19-inch prompter that decodes and encodes full-bandwidth NDI and runs on 802.3bt PoE, with SDI and HDMI inputs. The IP tally light follows NDI, contact closure or vMix. Sized for PTZ cameras from Canon, Panasonic, Sony and others.

  • Ikan Aura Professional 19-inch teleprompter with a talent monitor mounted under the glass and a red tally light

    PT419-PTZ-TM

    Aura Professional 19"

    A 1,000-nit prompter monitor paired with a 19-inch 1080p talent monitor, SDI and HDMI inputs and red and green tally, for lit sets where the script has to stay readable.

  • Ikan 12-inch desktop teleprompter on a weighted swivel base

    PT312W-DESKTOP

    12" desktop prompter

    A 1080p, 500-nit prompter on a weighted, height-adjustable base with a webcam riser, for presenters, podcasts and video calls.

PrompterPro 4 software for Windows and Mac comes with these prompters. The same Aura NDI panel is also sold on its own as a desktop, rack-mount or talent monitor: 19 inches, PoE++, full NDI encoding and decoding and an IP tally light, so a control room can put one anywhere the network reaches.

// complete positions

A camera position, delivered as one part number.

Ikan builds the prompter, the camera, the support and the case into a package, which is often the simplest way to add a studio position or a second shooting room.

Prompter and pedestal
A 19-inch or 15-inch Aura prompter on a counterweighted or pneumatic pedestal, with the mounting plate, cable and case worked out already. PTZ versions carry the camera behind the glass.
Prompter and tripod
The same prompters on a heavy-duty tripod and dolly, for rooms where the position has to move or store away.
Studio Rover
A studio on wheels: PTZ camera, prompter, lighting, confidence monitor and a motorised lift on one cart, controlled over NDI, VISCA, Art-Net and sACN, and built to hand over to people who are not engineers.
Cameras and support
Ikan also makes the OTTICA PTZ cameras that go into these positions, and the E-Image pedestals, PTZ tripods and heads that carry them.

Tell us the room, the camera and how the script reaches the prompter, and we will price the position as a package or as parts, whichever is better for you.
