Return to Overview 

The Brother Luminare Innov-is XP3 boasts a host of impressive features. You can see Brother's online library of videos which demonstrate various aspects of this highly-featured machine. Features include the following:

StitchVision - revolutionary improved projector technology
Get it right first time with Brother’s StitchVision projector technology. Check the actual size and placement of your embroidery design by projecting designs and stitches over your chosen area, depending on the size of the design. For enhanced visibility, no matter what fabric you’re working with, you can choose from green, red or white guidelines and embroidery pointer. The 2-in-1 sensor pen lets you change stitch length, width and position directly on to the fabric.

InnovEye Plus Technology - unrivalled when it comes to precision and accuracy
The ability to scan the entire embroidery area provides virtually endless creative options and helps take the guesswork out of your projects. With super-fast scanning speeds, you can spend more time creating and less time waiting

My Design Center – powerful and intuitive
This powerful, yet user-friendly platform can’t be found anywhere else. At the touch of a screen quickly and easily design your own embroidery patterns, creating projects that are as unique as you are. Draw straight into the platform or scan pictures and clip art with the built-in camera scanning function – there’s no need for any additional software! View your creations in crisp, vivid colour and watch them become larger than life wqith the zoom function of up to 1600% within My Design Centre. It also features easy to use functions such as a pan tool, up/down and side scrolling, undo/redo, flip, rotate in 0.1 degree adjustments, and more

2-in-1 sensor pen
Brother’s unique 2-in-1 sensor pen works on both the touchscreen and your fabric. Use this innovative sensor pen to make adjustments to your stitches, directly onto your fabric. Adjust stitch width, length, and left/right shift. Easily switch your stitch design by pressing the left or right arrow keys using the sensor pen.

Endless embroidery design inspiration
The XP3 comes with over 1500 built in embroidery designs from Disney, Anna Aldmon, Zundt, ZenTangle and Pierre Joseph Redouté. Iris, Floriani, Simplicity and Polyfast brands now feature in our already generous colour palette. Enhanced colour shuffling function and automatic complementary colour combinations

Bring Disney characters to life
The enchanting world of Disney is now at your fingertips. From Mickey to Elsa to Nemo, the Luminaire Innov-is XP3 can add Disney magic into your cherished creations. Access 192 exclusive built-in embroidery designs and 10 fun Disney decorative stitches.

Large Connect embroidery designs
When you want to ‘go big’ on your next embroidery project, the five built-in large connect embroidery designs are a great starting point. Select from ornate flowers, birds, and other elaborate designs.

Guided sewing
Use the projector to beam guidelines directly onto your fabric. Choose from straight or angled lines. Project the pinpoint drop light directly where you want your needle to start on the fabric, making stitch placement and free-motion quilting so much more precise. Angled lines of 45, 60, 90 and 120 degrees are also included on the Straight Stitch Needle Plate. This guidance makes it easy for quilters to perfectly place triangles, rectangles, squares, circles, hexagons, diamonds and virtually any other shape.

Edge-to-edge quilting
Edge-to-edge quilt with ease using StitchVision projector technology and the long arm. Choose any of the ten in-built designs, input your quilt dimensions and the Luminaire XP3 will auto-split them into multiple hoopings for you. Brother’s clever technology allows you to use the whole embroidery hoop to stitch out. Less hooping = quicker quilting.

(Contd.).

Bobbin winding with five different levels
A dedicated bobbin winding motor enables new bobbins to be wound even while you continue to sew. Now choose from five levels of bobbin winding volume – especially good for thinner embroidery bobbin thread

Quick release needle plate
No screwdriver necessary - remove the whole needle plate even while the embroidery unit is connected, using a simple slider button

Stitch tapering
Add a professional taper to jeans, tops, and home decor. Simply choose the stitch you want to use, the angle of the start and end of the taper, and the number of repeat stitches in the pattern cycle

Multi-function Foot Controller  
The XP3 comes with a new improved Multi-Function Foot Controller, with updated heel and toe kick angle. The spring load of the main pedal has been reduced for easier stepping and load reduction

Large, high-resolution, tablet-style touchscreen
The 10.1” high-resolution tablet-like screen allows you to side-scroll, flick and pinch in and out. From this screen you can quickly and easily design and edit your own unique embroidery patterns. You can draw straight onto the screen, or scan pictures and clip art with the built-in camera scanning function, with no additional software necessary. You can also customise your machine settings, and view on-screen video tutorials and built-in help guides

“No Sew” feature
This feature lets you remove different aspects of a design before you start so you can see what you do, and don’t, want to stitch out

Extra-large workspace
The generous 127 x 332 mm (5" x 13.1") workspace is one of the largest in the industry, and allows you to comfortably quilt a king-sized bed cover.

Intelligent buttonhole detection
Create flawless buttonholes with the new lever-less camera buttonhole detection feature. The camera-assisted buttonhole foot recognises the size of your button and automatically determines the correct sewing size. The Luminaire Innov-is XP3 also independently adjusts the sewing speed while stitching, resulting in beautifully sewn buttonholes. The clever lever-less system stops thick fabric like fleece being caught and distorting the fabric

Snowman function
The XP3 uses the innovative snowman sticker placement system to split and combine large patterns perfectly, and to accurately place designs on your fabric. Join large quilt sashes, continuous borders and oversize designs quickly and accurately, giving professional standard results.

Embroidery stippling features
The inside/outside auto stipple and fill pattern function allows you to get the look of complicated freehand stippling without special software or stitch regulation. Use the built-in library of shapes to add interesting detail to projects. Combine shapes, and apply inside or outside stippling
Auto stipple and outline recognition lets you easily add stippling embroidery to achieve uniform, professional looking results

Flexible, wide decorative stitching
Most of the decorative stitches can be enlarged up to 120%, or reduced by 50%.
