VDO Atomic Bold

The Martin VDO Atomic Bold is a full-color LED hybrid fixture designed for strobe, blinder, wash, and pixel-mapped applications in a single IP65-rated unit. It combines an RGBW beam engine with a pixel-controllable RGB Aura backlight and supports DMX, RDM, Art-Net, sACN, and Martin P3 control. The octagonal housing and VDO Grid Mount System allow fixtures to be interconnected into battens, arrays, and creative shapes for touring, broadcast, and installation environments.
