  • Publication number: 20240071593
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed that provide smart alerts to users, e.g., alerts to users about diabetic states that are only provided when it makes sense to do so, e.g., when the system can predict or estimate that the user is not already cognitively aware of their current condition, e.g., particularly where the current condition is a diabetic state warranting attention. In this way, the alert or alarm is personalized and made particularly effective for that user. Such systems and methods still alert the user when action is necessary, e.g., a bolus or temporary basal rate change, or provide a response to a missed bolus or a need for correction, but do not alert when action is unnecessary, e.g., if the user is already estimated or predicted to be cognitively aware of the diabetic state warranting attention, or if corrective action was already taken.

  • Patent number: 11879635
    Abstract: A luminaire is provided that includes an LED light engine emitting a light engine light beam and one or more optical devices configured to receive the light engine light beam and form a luminaire light beam emitted by the luminaire. The LED light engine includes an array of LED emitters mounted on a substrate, an array of lenses optically coupled to the array of LED emitters, and a plurality of filter regions. The filter regions of the plurality of filter regions are optically coupled to and fixedly mounted relative to the array of LED emitters. Each filter region of the plurality of filter regions is aligned with an associated LED of the array of LED emitters and is configured to filter substantially only light emitted by the associated LED.

    Abstract: A luminaire and LED light engine are provided. The luminaire includes the LED light engine and an optical device. The LED light engine includes an LED array and a partial diffuser. The partial diffuser diffuses light that is emitted by LEDs of a selected first subset of LEDs in the LED array and leaves undiffused light that is emitted by LEDs of a second subset of LEDs in the LED array. At least some LEDs are selected for inclusion in the first subset as emitting light that produces poorly blended colors in a light beam emitted by the LED array. The optical device is configured to receive a light beam emitted from the LED light engine and emit a modified light beam.

  • Patent number: 9995452
    Abstract: A light device, especially a headlight of motor vehicles, comprises at least one light unit (1), or a group (1a, 1b) of light units, at least one optical directing element (3, 2e, 3f), adapted to direct the light beam emitted by the light unit, or group of light units, to the required direction, and at least one output lens (4) for passage of at least a part of the light rays of the light beam or beams to create a light pattern (A, B, C) on the display surface (ZY). On the route of the light beam between the optical directing element and the output lens, there is at least one optical diaphragm element (11, 21, 31) containing a system of trim edges (13, 23, 33) to create the required shape of the cross-section of a part or parts of the light beam designed for transmission along the above-mentioned route.

  • Patent number: 9989207
    Abstract: A light device comprises at least one light source (10) to generate light rays (201, 202, 203), an output lens (5), and lateral walls (7, 8) delimiting a space (27) for passage of the light rays after the lens and exiting out of the light device through a transparent cover (9) covering the space at the front. Between the light source and the output lens, a reflective diaphragm (11) is arranged that comprises fixed reflective lateral walls (11a, 11b), for spatial delimitation of the light rays between the lateral walls before they enter the output lens. The output lens has, in the vertical direction at the side facing the diaphragm, a convex shape and the lateral walls include, at the side facing the output lens, free ends (14) that have a rounded concave shape in the vertical direction, which is substantially complementary to the output lens convex shape.
