DMX is a very common lighting control network in the event industry. It was originally designed to reduce the amount of wiring in dimmer racks from one wire per dimmer to just a single twisted pair for up to 512 dimmer channels. As the lighting industry evolved to automated lights it was then used to control lights with multiple channels used for things like pan, tilt and colour.
A more recent variant is RDM (Remote Device Management) which is backwards compatible with DMX, but adds bidirectional communication so that you can communicate with lights and get responses back. This allows things like remote setup and addressing, and also fault reporting.
This device is a bluetooth interface for DMX/RDM lighting networks that lets you use an app on your phone to test and program lights whether they be on the test bench or in a rig. It's not a cheap device, because it's a very valuable tool to professional lighting technicians in the same way as good OBD units are a valuable tool to vehicle mechanics.
The DMX-cat is a popular choice for lighting technicians, and is used my myself and most of my colleagues at work. The app has a huge integrated library of the most common lights in the industry to make life a lot easier by providing a suitable control interface for each light or control module.
Supporting the channel with a dollar or two on Patreon helps keep it independent of KZitem's quirks, avoids intrusive mid-video adverts, gives early access, bonus footage and regular quiet Patreon live streams.
