Gerab Energy Systems presents Accent MX Powercore Gen3 and Accent Compact from Color Kinetics, direct-view linear fixtures engineered to transform architectural surfaces into interactive visual statements. Two form factors handle everything from expansive media facade lighting canvases to discreet ornamental highlights, with pixel-level addressability, daylight-visible output, and IP66 sealing. Continuous runs stretch up to 100 metres, giving specifiers creative freedom across skyline elevations while keeping wiring, mounting, and commissioning straightforward for regional integrators.
The Accent portfolio is engineered for direct-view installations where each pixel must remain crisp against strong ambient light. Accent MX Powercore Gen3 uses line voltage to drive extended continuous runs, while Accent Compact offers a lightweight low-voltage option with tighter node spacing for detailed patterns, animations, and typography.
Every feature listed below traces back to a single design goal: keep the visual line intact from the first pixel to the last, whether that line stretches across a hundred-metre skyline crown or wraps a hotel canopy corner. The Accent range achieves this through hardware choices that matter to specifiers, contractors, and facilities teams alike, from connector integrity to pixel-level control fidelity.
