Also, unlike color wheel based LED movers projectors don't fall on their face when using any color except white. That's a big reason you are seeing such a resurgence in HTI bulbs in higher end movers, and thats because those bulbs were designed, you guessed it, for use in projectors.
Automation , DMX and all that other jazz already exists on low price scanners. Why invent what's already there? The only tricky part is most projectors have much wider throws than movers and spots, and narrowing the throw to emulate even the widest angle movers *does* get pricey with a projector.
Using an HDMI android dongle with wifi would really be an advantage for mobile DJ's. They can already do 1080p video, so it's just a software application.
In any respects, thinking outloud. Every year I keep seeing the same lot of dumb *ss movers using the same gobo effects with nobody doing anything innovative. Thanks for the link btw.....have to check it out because I'm doing a renovation and need something unique.
