Heritage Digitization Reimagined
Introducing the Next Advancement in Lighting & Color Accuracy
DT Stellar | DT Nexus | DT Fusion
The Most Advanced Lighting & Color Available
Today we proudly introduce three major advancements in heritage digitization
DT Stellar
Heritage
Lighting System
Newly designed from the ground up, the DT Stellar raises the already-high bar DT set for color quality, productivity, material safety, ergonomics, durability, and modularity for those running FADGI or ISO compliant digitization programs. And with our new DT Nexus software you can (among many advanced features) control the Stellar right from your computer.
Improvements
- Additional stop of light
- Lower minimum output
- No external control box
- Built in power adapter and simplified cabling
- Modular – daisy chain unlimited number of Stellars
- Improved ergonomics
- Improved connectivity – built-in ethernet
- Higher maximum output
DT Nexus
Advanced
Digitization Software
DT Nexus software provides full control of the DT Stellar lighting system directly from the capture station, but offers much, much more, including color profiling, color profile validation, and control over the camera, DT Autocolumn, and RAW settings. Plus, not only can each light have its power individually adjusted in increments as small as 1/100th of a stop, you can create groups of lights to be easily adjusted together.
Features
- Control DT Stellar lighting system
- Create & control groups of lights
- Easy color profiling
- Color profile validation
- AI Cropping
- Camera Control
- Autocolumn Control
- RAW settings Control
DT Fusion
The Most Accurate
Color Achievable
DT Fusion is a revolutionary new feature that easily and instantly DT Fusion halves color errors for most modern cameras. Simply click a button and within 2 seconds* DT Fusion captures a standard 16-bit TIFF with significantly more accurate color. This is an easy drop-in replacement for your reflective or transmissive digitization process, and does not require any special expertise or filter wheels.
Features
- Improved color accuracy – especially with hard to capture “outlier” colors
- Cuts DeltaE in half
- Easy, single-click capture
- No change in your digitization process or workflow
- Fast—made for high-volume production
- Compatible with nearly any camera and lens
- Works with both reflective and transmissive material
- No filter wheels!

DT Gemini
Twin Lights for Larger Material
For larger stations like the DT Element, DT Versa, or DT Titan, two Stellars can be combined using a DT Gemini Kit creating a 96cm (38″) light similar in form factor to a DT Photon XL.

The Importance of Evaluating Color with an Independent Target
We noticed many of our clients, even ones with fairly sophisticated understandings of color science, were making custom color profiles using a given target and then evaluating the resulting quality using that same target. This is a big no-no. This article explains why.
