The lights dim. The screens shift. The fog rolls in. Your audience has no idea it's all one system.
Your escape room has screens on one system, lighting on another, and audio on a third. A technician manually coordinates scene transitions. Your flagship store wants ambient lighting to shift with on-screen campaigns but can't bridge the systems.
SPARC controls your screens, your lighting, your fog machines, your audio, and your door locks — from one tablet. Your audience doesn't know it's all controlled from one place. They just know the experience is flawless.
The Cost of Disconnected Systems
3+ Systems
Most immersive venues run screens, lighting, and audio on completely separate platforms with no coordination
Manual Sync
A technician manually coordinates every scene transition — pressing buttons on three different interfaces
Broken Immersion
When the lighting is half a second late or the fog fires early, your audience notices — and the magic breaks
Save and Recall Complete Environment States
Your escape room has 12 scenes. Each one involves different lighting, audio, screen content, and effects — all timed to the second. Today, a technician manually coordinates every transition. With SPARC, every scene is a single preset that fires everything at once.
One-Touch Scene Presets
Save the exact state of every device in a room — screens, lights, audio, fog, motors — as a single scene. Recall it with one tap. Every transition is instant and repeatable.
- Save and recall unlimited scene presets per zone or venue
- Scenes capture screen content, lighting levels, audio tracks, and device states simultaneously
- Transition between scenes instantly — no manual coordination required
Controlled From One Tablet
Your operator doesn't need three interfaces, two remotes, and a lighting desk. One tablet controls everything in the room — screens, lights, fog, audio, locks, motors.
- Single interface replaces lighting desks, media servers, and separate control systems
- Touch-friendly Controller interface designed for live operators and front-of-house staff
- Real-time feedback shows the state of every device before and after a scene change
Automation Triggers
Scenes don't always need a human. Set triggers based on occupancy, time of day, calendar events, or sensor input — and let the environment respond automatically.
- Trigger scene changes when occupancy thresholds are reached
- Schedule environment shifts by time of day, day of week, or campaign calendar
- Chain scenes together for multi-stage experiences with automatic progression
Emergency Override
When something goes wrong, every screen, light, and speaker in the building needs to respond immediately. SPARC's emergency alert system overrides everything — instantly.
- Emergency scenes override all active content and environment states across the network
- Automatic IoT triggers: alarms activate, lighting shifts to emergency levels, door locks release
- CAP-compliant alerting for regulatory compliance in public venues
Screens, Lights, Fog, Audio, Motors — One Platform
Your flagship store wants ambient lighting to shift with on-screen campaigns. Your simulation centre needs projectors, motion platforms, and audio to fire in perfect sync. Your theme park runs fog machines, lasers, and servos from three separate systems. SPARC bridges them all.
Lighting Control
LED strips, architectural lighting, DMX fixtures — controlled directly from SPARC. No separate lighting desk. Lighting shifts with your content, your schedule, and your audience.
- Control LED strips, RGB fixtures, and architectural lighting from the same platform as your screens
- Sync lighting changes to on-screen content transitions automatically
- Supports industry-standard protocols for professional lighting integration
Atmospheric Effects
Fog machines, haze generators, scent diffusers, and air cannons — triggered precisely when a scene demands it. Your audience feels the experience, not just sees it.
- Trigger fog, haze, wind, and scent effects as part of scene presets
- Precise timing coordination with screen content and audio cues
- Safety interlocks and cooldown timers for equipment protection
Audio Integration
Soundscapes, announcements, background music, and directional audio — all synchronised with your visual content and controlled from one place.
- Zone-based audio control with independent volume and source per area
- Audio tracks synchronised to screen content and scene transitions
- Background music scheduling with automatic ducking for announcements
Mechanical & Access Control
Servos, motors, projectors, lasers, and door locks — controlled as part of your environment. An escape room door unlocks when the puzzle is solved. A showroom reveal panel opens on cue.
- Control servos, motors, and mechanical actuators as part of scene presets
- Door lock integration for escape rooms, secure areas, and timed reveals
- Projector and laser control with power management and safety shutoffs
Zones, Rooms, and Spaces — Organised Your Way
A museum has 40 galleries. A theme park has 12 attractions. A retail chain has 200 stores. SPARC lets you group devices into logical zones so you can control a single room, an entire floor, or every location — all from the same interface.
Zone-Based Grouping
Group screens, lights, audio, and effects by physical space. Control everything in 'Gallery 3' or 'Escape Room 2' as a single unit — without affecting anything else.
- Create logical zones that mirror your physical spaces: rooms, floors, buildings, or regions
- Apply scenes, content, and schedules per zone or across multiple zones simultaneously
- Nested zones for complex venues: building → floor → room → area
LBE Controller Interface
Purpose-built for location-based entertainment operators. A simplified, touch-friendly control surface for running escape rooms, simulation bays, and interactive attractions.
- Streamlined operator view showing only the controls relevant to the current attraction
- Large, touch-friendly scene buttons designed for fast-paced live operation
- Session management: reset rooms, track run times, and log completions
Multi-Site Environment Control
Your head office sets the baseline lighting and content schedule for every store. Each store manager can adjust within their zone. Changes propagate in real time.
- Central environment templates deployed across hundreds of locations simultaneously
- Local overrides within defined boundaries — head office stays in control
- Real-time status visibility across every zone in every location from one dashboard
Venue-Scale Orchestration
Museums, theme parks, and large venues need every space to work together. SPARC coordinates experiences across dozens of zones so the entire venue feels cohesive.
- Cross-zone scene coordination for venue-wide events and transitions
- Wayfinding integration: environment cues guide visitors between spaces
- Capacity-aware zone management adjusts experiences based on crowd distribution
