  • Patent number: 11950343
    Abstract: Apparatus, systems, and methods for controlling light output in a lighting system based on defined light profiles are provided. In one example implementation, a light fixture can include a first light emitting diode (LED) array having one or more LED light sources and a second LED array having one or more LED light sources. The light fixture can include a power circuit configured to provide power to the first LED array and the second LED array according to a power distribution among the first LED array and the second LED array. The light fixture can include one or more control devices configured to control the power circuit to adjust the power distribution among the first LED array and the second LED array based at least in part on a signal indicative of a real time clock and a defined light profile associated with a user identified to be present in a space illuminated by the light fixture.

  • Patent number: 11934161
    Abstract: System and method provide wireless distributed lighting control systems implementing a secure peer-to-peer, self-organizing and self-healing mesh network of actuators and system inputs. The system and method can be designed specifically for indoor and outdoor lighting where actuators include in-fixture, on-fixture and circuit control modules with ON/OFF and full range dimming capabilities, and system inputs include occupancy/vacancy sensors, daylight sensors and switches. A unique messaging protocol facilitates wireless and wired communication between actuators and system inputs, and provides web-based commissioning and monitoring of the lighting control system using a wireless access point accessible from a local network or Internet which can provide an intuitive and easy to use Graphical User Interface (GUI).
