StarEFX™ MATRIX — Fibre Optic Feature Ceiling Panel
Pixel-mapped LED matrix fibre optic ceiling panels for dynamic, programmable environments in hospitality, commercial, healthcare and architectural interiors.
Beyond static lighting — a programmable ceiling canvas
StarEFX MATRIX is a fibre optic ceiling panel featuring pixel-mapped LED matrix technology. Each fibre point is individually driven through a pixel-mapping engine — enabling dynamic colour patterns, wave animations, sequential effects, and immersive visual displays across the entire ceiling plane. Designed for architects and specifiers who want the ceiling to function as an active design element, not passive background lighting.
Key capabilities
- Pixel-mapped individual addressing — each fibre point independently controlled for pattern and colour
- Dynamic animations — wave, ripple, chase, gradient wash, colour shift, custom scene programming
- Multi-panel coordination — seamless tiling across large ceiling areas as a unified animation canvas
- Connectivity — Wi-Fi or wired LAN
- Ecosystem integrated — synchronises with PULSE panels, Altair, downlights, cornices and skirtings via LightEFX hub
- Control — LightEFX app and wall-mounted touchpad
Applications
- Hospitality — hotel lobbies, bars, restaurants, event spaces, ballrooms
- Retail and commercial — brand-driven environments, showrooms, flagship stores
- Entertainment — cinemas, theatres, gaming lounges, immersive experiences
- Healthcare and wellbeing — sensory rooms, paediatric spaces, engagement environments
- Corporate — feature boardrooms, branded reception areas
- Education — sensory and technology learning environments
MATRIX vs PULSE — choosing the right panel
StarEFX PULSE delivers calm, ambient star shimmer — ideal for healthcare, de-escalation, rest environments, and spaces where subtle atmosphere is the priority. StarEFX MATRIX delivers dynamic, programmable visual impact — ideal for hospitality, commercial, entertainment, and high-engagement brand environments. Both panels integrate into the same LightEFX Ecosystem and can be combined within a single installation.
Part of the LightEFX Human Centric Ecosystem
MATRIX integrates with StarEFX PULSE panels, the Altair suspended acoustic lighting panel, RGBCCT Downlights, EdgeLine Cornices, EdgeLine Skirtings, RGBCW LED strips, and the DeskLight task lamp — all synchronised through a central touchscreen hub.
