About Gobos
A gobo is a small round disc with an image or logo that, when inserted into a gobo projector, projects the image. Gobos can be an impressive and versatile alternative to traditional printed media.
For an effective gobo representation some specific elements are required:
-
1Profile Spotlight
A profile light that can accept a gobo in its light path is needed to focus and zoom the gobo.
-
2Gobo
A projected image is applied to the slide. The slides differ in materials and the number of colors used
-
3Projection screen
A dedicated surface such as a wall onto which the gobo is projected is required.
What are Gobos used for?
Gobo Types
-
Stainless Steel Gobos
Metal gobos can only be two-colored, that is, only black and white. This is because the gobo is punched.
-
Black and white glass gobos
By far the most popular type of gobos are black and white glass gobos, which are made with a high resolution process. Glass gobos can withstand higher temperatures, making them better suited for newer gobo projectors.
-
Glass gobos with different colors
Gobos with different colors allow you to project open white and another color. These are usually used for logos since most logos have a variation of one color plus white/black.
-
Glass gobos in Full Color
Full-color glass gobos are spectacular once projected. They allow for the creation of complex, detailed gobos or photographic images with multiple vibrant colors, gradients, and shades.

Any questions? We have the answers.
-
What kind of signs can we make?
We can project anything, even photos and full posters. Projection can be done in all shapes, sizes and colors. Mandatory signs according to DIN EN ISO 7010 and safety signs are the most common orders.
-
How is it connected?
A gobo projector can be easily connected to a power outlet or directly into the circuit. It can be mounted on the ceiling or fixed to a power rail. The gobo projector can also be connected to a motion sensor Video or a traffic light Video. If the projector is installed in an inaccessible place, it can still be easily operated with the remote control.
-
What is the durability?
The gobo projector is screwed to flat surfaces and additionally secured with a safety rope.
-
Can the projected image be changed?
Yes, of course! It is very simple. You can find all the necessary information in the Gobo Projector manual. Or watch this video.
-
Can I change the spare parts myself?
No, but you will never need to. We are confident in our products and guarantee the proper operation of the equipment for at least 2 years.
-
What height is required for installation of the projector / what distance is required between the projector and the projection surface?
The size of the projection depends on the installation distance. With standard lenses, our projectors project a projection between 26-30cm at a distance of one meter. With special lenses, the size can also be reduced or increased. Watch this video.
-
How much does this solution cost and is there a discount for a bulk order?
The cost of such a project depends on many parameters, such as what models are needed (how much light is in the room), how big the gobo projection should be, how many projectors are needed, etc. All projects are calculated individually. Ask our specialists for a free and non-binding consultation. And of course there are discounts for large orders or repeat orders.
