We specialize in illumination of low-light and space-constrained environments where traditional theatrical luminaires aren’t suitable.
Gantom Lighting & Controls, formerly Darklight, was founded in the Spring of 2010 as a manufacturer of special-effects lighting equipment catering to the themed attraction industry.
Our “Precision” series of LED fixtures were developed with compactness, safety, modularity, and ease-of-use in mind to allow lighting designers to illuminate environments impossible to illuminate with larger fixtures. In 2011, we expanded our product line to include compact controllers that add a dynamic element to our luminaires.
In late 2012, we launched a new line of products designed for the professional lighting and architectural markets called the “Gantom” series. Our award-winning products have become the “secret weapon” of many lighting designers and industry experts and have been installed in a wide range of venues around the world including theme parks, museums, bars and clubs, casinos, and haunted attractions.
In 2015, we launched our Gantom Live! division, which specializes in low-investment, interactive technology for attractions. One of Gantom’s flagship creations is the Torch Technology—infrared (IR) beacons placed throughout a venue which transmit live show data to guest wearable devices.
Torch Technology was most recently used in interactive snowflakes at the holiday season ICE! at Gaylord Palms Resort & Convention Center.
Gantom is a proud member of PLASA, USITT, IAAPA, HAA, and TEA.
