About the project

Modernizing Theatre Automation & Rigging Operations

Theatres and live performance venues depend on complex motorized rigging systems to execute stage movements safely and precisely. Traditional rigging operations often rely on manual coordination, disconnected control systems, and limited visibility into equipment status, increasing operational complexity and production risks. 

The Flyhouse Console Platform was developed to centralize theatre automation into one intelligent control environment. The platform enables operators to manage motors, axes, cues, venue configurations, and production workflows while providing real-time monitoring, interactive visualization, and role-based operational control. 

Designed for theatres, production companies, media organizations, and entertainment venues, the platform improves operational safety, simplifies show execution, enhances system reliability, and delivers complete visibility across live performance environments.
