The prospect of the future stage lighting system is very exciting. After the advent of incandescent lamps, the technological changes in stage lighting systems began with the advent of ellipsoidal reflector (Leko) lamps in the 1930s. In the 1960s, the emergence of SCR dimmers caused a fundamental change in the development of stage lighting systems. At present, automated lamps and computer lights (first appeared in the 1970s) are setting off another revolution in stage lighting technology.
Computer software for stage lighting design will continue to develop, which will eventually allow the designer to dominate his "visual" technology in a completely artistic "interactive" way. Today's lighting software only provides designers with assistance in design, drawing, and paperwork. Future stage lighting design software will be able to use "touch screen" and "voice recognition" functions. The intelligent control of the stage lighting system has begun to take shape.

1. Reason analysis
1. Backward concept
  The concept of backwardness involves many aspects. On the manufacturer’s side, some people think that the technology content of lamps is low, and they will do it at a glance. You don’t need to invest in development and just copy them. Others think that there is no market for high-end products, and the development investment is large and the risk is high. Others have a weak concept of implementing standards. Turn a blind eye to various technical standards and norms; even have a low legal concept, pretend to be inferior, fake and inferior. From the perspective of users, some theater troupe leaders think that lighting can only handle the performance, and they are unwilling to invest more funds to update equipment or purchase high-end lamps; some theater managers reject high-maintenance, complex, high-performance lamps and light leakage. It doesn't care whether it is a problem or not, just satisfied that there is no problem with the performance, just change the light bulb less; there are a few lighting personnel who are used to old lamps and are unwilling to accept new things and new products.
2. Weak design power
  Some lighting manufacturers have few or no designers, and their professional level is low. They often hire people temporarily when developing new products. Although the real lighting experts may be invited, they do not understand the stage, and they do not understand the function of the lighting on the stage, and they may not be able to design a lighting that is welcome on the stage. In addition, they leave after the product is developed and cannot improve or upgrade the product.
3. Insufficient investment in lamp development and lack of technical reserves
   In recent years, some insightful domestic manufacturers have begun to invest large amounts of capital to develop some new products, but for a country with a vast territory like China, it is still far from enough. Driven by economic interests, short-sighted behaviors are not uncommon, and those who are willing to invest heavily and make technical reserves are even rarer.
4. Low-end market impact
   At present, many troupes and theaters are financially struggling, especially the large number of small and medium troupes and prefecture-level theaters. Therefore, low-cost, low-performance products still have a broad market. Manufacturers are vying for the low-end market, and price wars are inevitable. The cost of the product can be saved by one point and never five percent. The material is thinner, the wires are thinner and shorter, and the process is less. The quality of the product is thus wiped out bit by bit. For high-end products such as Yangchun Baixue, there are very few people, and their efforts are not thankful. In addition, the manufacturers' own capabilities are inherently insufficient, and they are comfortable in the low-end market.
5. The manufacturer's corporate management level is not high
   Domestic lighting factories are mostly small enterprises, among which there are many private enterprises. Although a few have passed ISO9000 and other international certifications, there are still many hand-workshop-style production and family-style management, and there is a lack of modern enterprise system construction.
6. The impact of foreign advanced products
   The entry of advanced foreign lamps has brought new technologies and new ideas to the Chinese people, but also impacted the domestic market. At present, high-end products can be said to dominate the world with foreign products. Many large theaters built in the past two years, as long as economic conditions permit, all use imported lamps. Some domestic manufacturers are unable to compete with foreign brands and can only abandon the development of high-end products, which has a certain negative impact on the development of domestic lamps.

Second, make suggestions
Facing the current situation, what actions should businesses take?
1. Update ideas
   Ideas are the most important key point. New ideas can have a new look and a clear direction. The renewal of ideas is multi-faceted, which is the same as in the above-mentioned analysis of the reasons for the gap.
2. Master the dynamics and cutting-edge technology of the world's stage lighting development
In the open market economy of the country and the advanced information technology today, it is not difficult to understand the development trends and frontiers. The key is to be a caring person. Browsing the Internet may be one of the best methods. Eliminated. Those who have the conditions can join ESTA and other organizations to integrate themselves into the international industry. They can not only understand development trends early, but also may participate in standard formulation and other work, and master technical initiative.
3. Strictly implement relevant standards and implement domestic and international certification of products
At present, the relevant standards for stage lighting are mainly safety standards. GB7000.1-1996 "General Safety Requirements and Tests for Lamps and lanterns" and GB7000.15-2000 "Safety Requirements for Lamps and lanterns for stage lighting, TV, film and photography (indoor and outdoor)" are both The International Electrotechnical Commission's corresponding standards are equivalent or equivalent. The implementation of these standards is beneficial for products to be in line with international standards. my country's 3C certification is a compulsory certification for product safety. At present, although stage lighting is not included in the first batch of 132 products in 19 categories that are included in the compulsory certification, manufacturers should take precautions. Safety certification is the general trend. Foreign products have been certified by UL, CE, TUV and other certifications. These passes are indispensable for domestic lamps to enter the international market. A discerning lighting manufacturer can start with domestic certification and gradually achieve international certification. At present, CQC voluntary certification can be implemented for products that are not included in the 3C certification in China. The "Voluntary Certification Catalog for Electrical Engineering" issued by the China Quality Certification Center (CQC) includes stage and film lamps.
At present, the use of two-core connectors without grounding in our country’s lamps certainly does not meet any standards and does not pass any certification. We take this opportunity to call on luminaire manufacturers to stop producing lamps that do not have a grounding wire and are only equipped with single-phase two-pole sockets. The universal three-core tail wire form, the standards related to electrical grounding include QB/T2135-1995 "Technical conditions for single-phase three-pole plugs, sockets and connectors for film and television stage lamps" and WH/T17-2003 "Single-phase for stage lighting Three-pole plug socket and connector type, basic parameters and size"), also call on colleagues in the lighting industry to cherish their lives, refuse to use lamps without grounding devices, and call on relevant functional departments such as technical supervision departments to be able to The implementation of standards in production and sales is supervised, and the cultural system can also be managed by corresponding institutions. In the past ten years, many industry standards and national standards related to stage equipment have been formulated. Some are mandatory, but they are basically in a situation where no one implements them after formulation. The key lies in the lack of publicity and supervision. Supervision is more important. Improving the level of stage equipment, including lamps, and integrating with international standards and integrating into the world economy, this ignorance of standards can no longer continue.
4. Strengthen industry management and coordination, and play the role of industry associations (societies)
Under the market economy, the original scientific research system no longer exists, and the functions of government agencies such as the Department of Education and Science (Science and Technology Department) of the Ministry of Culture and the Department of Education and Science (Science and Technology) of the provincial and municipal cultural departments have changed. The China Art Performance Materials Association can play its role. The role of management and coordination, including the formulation of relevant standards and norms. Organizations such as the famous ESTA (Entertainment Service and Technology Association) and USITT (American Theater Technology Association) have a great influence in the industry and have played a major role in the development of stage technology and products. The famous DMX512 lighting control protocol and The latest ACN network control protocol comes from these organizations.
5. Cultivate the domestic market and open up the international market
  Good products need mature market support. The market needs to be cultivated. If there is a good market, there will be more and better products. Exploiting the international market and integrating into the tide of the world economy can improve the quality of products.
