Where will it stand?

One page for rooms, one for events.

Is that what it really looks like?

Yes. This is the sphere at Mahalla in 2025, filmed as it is.

The real thingMahalla, 2025Original footage, 12-second loop100 cm prototype with superseded LEDs: each pixel is seven LEDs wide, with no warm white. HELIO now uses about 165 LEDs per metre on every size, one every 6 mm, each its own pixel, in RGB plus warm white.
Close up into a real HELIO sphere: the ring of LEDs as a line of points, repeated as rings of gold, blue and violet far into the mirror

How does one ring fill the sphere?

Reflections give it depth

The ring repeats inside the shell, so one line of light reads as many.

Colour that moves

Hold one calm colour for a room, or let it run for a crowd.

What can it play?

Six of its scenes, filmed on one sphere. It plays many more, ten of them to music. Try them in the 3D simulator

Which spheres are left in batch 1?

Batch 1 is estimated to ship 3 to 6 months from a confirmed pre-order.

About the model and mounting concepts

Model reference
The supplier drawing specifies a 700 mm dome and a 740 mm flange. The original HELIO simulator traces light reflecting inside the sphere. The surroundings and mountings are visual concepts.

Floor concept
A semicircular yoke holds two locking pivots. Proposed protected metal adapters connect these to the equatorial flange and spread the load.

Physical configuration
The final adapter, assembled weight and support system need verification before installation.

Assembled weight, electrical requirements, mounting and outdoor suitability, and fire classification (including B1) are not yet verified for the complete product. These must be assessed for your intended use as part of an individual offer.
