"The Super Trouper is the trademark for a special type of spotlight (followspot) for lighting venues such as concert venues and stadiums. This spotlight is designed to cast a bright ray of light onto the stage. It is also designed to follow the performer wherever he/she goes on the stage."

Used a RoboSpot last weekend for the first time doing the follow spot for Tom Jones (not exactly difficult as he doesn't move around the stage much these days...).
