Combination of All the Advanced Sewing Technologies!
We have probably reviewed tens or hundreds of sewing machines on the market, but we are yet to find something like the Luminaire 2 Innov-is XP2 when it comes to being technologically advanced.
It offers the very best – in fact, better than what we knew as the best – in terms of sewing technologies out there. There are all types of features and functions you can imagine, and that’s all while offering a surprisingly user-friendly operation. Talk about getting the best of both worlds!
The Luminaire 2 Innov-is XP2 supports wireless LAN connectivity, and allows you to stay on top of your sewing projects from anywhere in your home using your iOS or Android devices.
There’s some advanced feature or functionality for every important sewing function, including stitching, quilting, embroidery and more.
Amazingly Functional
There are a total of 1,322 built-in embroidery designs, 192 Disney character patterns and 10 unique Disney designs, 670 decorative stitches, 24 embroidery fonts and 4 sewing lettering fonts.
More importantly, you can make your Luminaire 2 Innov-is XP2 create any of these by just selecting them on the large, HD 10.1” LCD touchscreen display.
It basically works like a tablet, and you can do all types of things and controls using it for your projects. There’s even a particularly functionality to create your own designs on it to be used on your projects.
Similarly, it also allows you to wirelessly send any images you want to be scanned and created on your fabrics.
The workspace itself is surprisingly large measuring around 65 square inches, while you get a generous 13.1” needle to suit every type of project you may ever work on.
There’s actually a lot more to the overall functionality of the Luminaire 2 Innov-is XP2, but it would probably need a whole post for it in itself.
Huge Number of Advanced Functionalities
You get notifications on your mobile device regarding important developments on your sewing projects, including changing thread, finished stitching and so on.
The highly innovative Stitchvision Technology allows you to ensure perfect stitch positioning, thanks to its smart focusing on the area you’re working on, real-time previews, ability to edit stitches and so on.
There’s a pretty cool end point sewing function as well, where you have a snowball-like sewing sticker that you can just place at the point where you would want the stitching to stop, and the Luminaire 2 XP2 would do that with great accuracy.
And there’s a long list of other such features as well.
