Joseph Fledderman has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11582845
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention include a lighting fixture(s), a computer program product and a computer-implemented method that include program code executed by a processor(s) that obtains a request to implement a specified lighting pattern in the lighting fixture(s). Each lighting fixture includes effect lighting communicatively coupled to the processor(s) and functional lighting (oriented to illuminate a surface below the lighting fixture) communicatively coupled to the processor(s). The program code identifies the specified lighting pattern in a memory communicatively coupled to the processor(s), which includes a sequence for illuminating a portion of the effect lighting elements. The processor(s) executes the specified lighting pattern in the lighting fixture(s).

  • Patent number: 10278251
    Abstract: The present technology is a light device system and method for controlling a dimming function of a light emitting diode (LED) device. The system includes at least one LED light source, a switch connected with the LED light source, and a microcontroller in communication with the switch. The microcontroller receives a dimming signal from a dimming control and a production curve from an interface, and applying an output signal to the switch. The output signal is at least partially based on the production curve that is at least partially based on an input received by the interface. The interface is associated with software that allows a user to create a custom production curve, which can then be programmed into the microcontroller. The production curve replicates dimming characteristics of incandescent lighting by associating with a coordinated-color-temperature. The LED light source can be multiple LED light sources of different color temperature.
