  • Patent number: 9890932
    Abstract: A luminaire configured for perimeter lighting, and having improved features for adjusting one or more lighting characteristics of said luminaire. In one example, the luminaire comprises a light bar structure that may be rotated relative to a housing structure of the luminaire. Additionally, the luminaire may have a light scoop structure for redirecting a portion of light emitted from the light bar structure. Further, an angle of the light scoop structure may be adjusted relative to the housing structure of the luminaire, and independently of the light bar structure.
