Luminair

Luminair is a name used in the lighting industry to describe several products and concepts related to lighting control and illumination. The most widely known use refers to a mobile software application designed to control DMX-compatible lighting rigs in professional settings such as film and television production, theater, and live events.

Designed for handheld devices, the app enables wireless control of lighting fixtures and effects over network protocols such as DMX over Ethernet, Art-Net, and sACN. It often supports cue-based playback, timeline animation, remote focus control, and multi-user collaboration for on-set workflows. Many implementations integrate with lighting consoles and dimming systems and can drive LED fixtures, fluorescents, and intelligent lighting heads.

Platform and usage: The application typically runs on iOS devices, with some versions or companion software available for macOS or other platforms. Users include cinematographers, gaffers, lighting designers, and technicians.

Other uses: The term luminair may be encountered in reference to other lighting-related products or in generic descriptive material about luminance and airflow in synthetic contexts, but the primary association is with lighting control software.
