  • Artificial Window
    Publication number: 20080192456
    Abstract: The artificial window (1) for use in apartments which lack a window through which day light may enter, has a light box (10) in which three sets of color lamps as light sources (13R,13G,13B) are mounted behind a diffuser (14). A window frame (20) is present in front of the diffuser (14) and a transparent plate (21) in the window frame (20), remote from the diffuser (14). Drivers (15) are present to start, to operate and to dim the light sources (13) thereby allowing to imitate natural light at different seasonal and time conditions. A number of features are described that further enhance the appearance of a real window.
