Rosco i-Cue Intelligent Mirror — Beam Control (AU & NZ)
Rosco i-Cue · intelligent mirror · Australia & New Zealand
Move the beam, not the light.
The Rosco i-Cue is a silent, DMX-controlled moving mirror that mounts on a profile (ellipsoidal) spotlight and repositions its beam at will. One fixture becomes many specials — refocused from your lighting desk, repeated exactly every show, without the cost or noise of a moving head.
Why i-Cue
One fixture, many looks
When the plot is tight or a moving head is overkill, the i-Cue does more with less.
Multiple specials from one light
Cover several focus points from a single hanging position — the mirror moves the beam to each on cue, so you don't dedicate a fixture to every special.
Silent & repeatable
Ultra-quiet stepper motors move the beam silently — fit for TV studios and concert halls — and land on the same mark every night, take after take.
Moving-light effects for less
Simple pans, tilts and sweeps without the cost, weight or installation burden of a full moving head. Rep plots re-purpose i-Cues show to show without re-hanging.
How it works
Drops into the colour-frame slot
The i-Cue fits virtually any fixture with a 6-1/4" colour-frame slot — ETC Source Four, Selecon Pacific and many others. A lightweight moving mirror sits in front of the lens and steers the beam across the stage from a single position.
- 230° of pan and 57° of tilt from one hanging position
- DMX control — 2 channels (8-bit) or 4 channels (16-bit) for smooth, precise moves
- Resolution to 0.028° in 16-bit mode
- Runs on a 24V scroller power supply (e.g. Rosco PSU 50); daisy-chain multiple units
- Stand-alone mode for programmed moves with no DMX, plus a built-in chase/ballyhoo
- Just 17W draw · ~1.6 kg mirror head
Where it's used
Made for flexible, quiet rigs
Theatre & dance
Rep and touring plots that must re-focus specials show to show without re-hanging — one i-Cue covers many marks.
Broadcast & TV
Silent operation makes it safe in studios and any acoustically sensitive space where a moving head's noise won't pass.
Worship & civic
Reposition a follow special or a scenic accent quietly through a service or event, driven from the desk or stand-alone.
Concerts & live events
Add pans, sweeps and ballyhoo from conventional profiles when you don't have — or don't need — full movers.
Museums & corporate
A single luminaire that re-aims on a timed cue — ideal for reveals, displays and multi-scene rooms.
Tight plots
When fixture count or budget is limited, the i-Cue turns the profiles you already own into repositionable specials.
