Shutter blades are superficially comparable to an iris because both systems sharply define the light beam. However, unlike the iris, shutter blades are mechanically much more complex and require up to eight individually controllable actuators to remotely control the numerous individual blades typically installed in the shutter blade module via DMX. With the help of a shutter blade module, the light beam can be shaped into a precise illumination of objects and scenes, for example, in the form of a triangle or rectangle, such as in theatre productions. For graphical control, the GUI provides a corresponding Control Panel.
