| SKYMASTER ZKP 4 with LED Illumination |
| |
SKYMASTER ZKP 4, though seemingly a midget of a planetarium projector, is great when it comes to performance. It has all the capabilities of a large-dome planetarium machine.
| Realistic, true-to-nature depiction of the sky |

Sophisticated projection systems with ZEISS fiber optics and LED illumination provide the best projection of the starry sky ever seen in a small planetarium. Each individual star is directly lighted by pure white light through a separate optical fiber. The new ZKP 4 sky is 2.5 times as bright as the earlier one. The Milky Way, star clusters, nebulae and galaxies are all presented with high detail accuracy.

| All-round talents: The planet projectors |
| |
Eight projectors present not only the naked-eye planets. Controlled in two axes, these projectors can demonstrate all planets of the solar system, planetary moons, comets, selected satellites, and even selected star motions – all with their exact orbits. With a single control cue, such complex demonstrations as the analemma or the far-out view of the planetary orbits around the Sun can be triggered. SKYMASTER ZKP 4 now also permits high-accuracy topocentric presentations. Digital control allows fast jumps across long periods of time.
| Live or fully automatic operation – as you like it |
| |
The control system satisfies state-of-the-art standards, with the hardware providing excellent reliability, and the software enabling exceptionally convenient operation. Live shows are just as easy to do as automatic runs. A handy control panel provides all functions needed for live operation.
SKYMASTER ZKP 4 has all capabilities for the integration of modern audiovisual systems including fulldome video projection, and has interfaces for communication with external control systems. SKYMASTER ZKP 4 can be directly combined with powerdome, the Carl Zeiss platform for fulldome projection. This combination enables synchronous coupling of optical-mechanical and digital projections. | |
