  • Patent number: 11742696
    Abstract: An emergency lighting system including a mains power supply, an auxiliary power supply, a brown-out circuit, a plurality of lights including a first group of lights and a second group of lights, and a controller. The brown-out circuit is configured to extract input voltage information related to a voltage level of the mains power supply, and scale down an input voltage of the mains power supply to a DC voltage proportional to the voltage level. The controller is configured to control the plurality of lights. Wherein, power is provided from the mains power supply to the first group of lights and the second group of lights when the DC voltage is above a threshold, and power is provided from the auxiliary power supply to the first group of lights and not the second group of lights when the DC voltage is below the threshold.

  • Patent number: 11708951
    Abstract: A lighting device includes a light source emitting light having a first bandwidth. A single optic device is coupled to the light source. The single optic device filters light having a preselected subrange of wavelengths within the first bandwidth to generate a first filtered light. The single optic device controls a shape of a beam of the filtered light. The filtered light creates a high-intensity narrow-spectrum light output. A second light source emits a high-intensity narrow-spectrum light output.

  • Patent number: 11686894
    Abstract: A luminaire includes a housing, a light diffusion panel, a reflective surface, and a plurality of light sources. The light diffusion panel includes a light source aperture, an edge surface bounding the light source aperture, and an emission surface. The emission surface includes first and second emission surface sections. The second emission surface section is disposed on an opposite side of the light source aperture from the first emission surface section. The reflective surface is disposed on a side of the light diffusion panel opposite the emission surface. The light sources project light into the light diffusion panel through the edge surface. The light sources include first and second light sources. The first light source projects light into the light diffusion panel and through the first emission surface section. The second light source projects light into the light diffusion panel and through the second emission surface section.

  • Patent number: 11612024
    Abstract: A method of determining a drive signal provided to a light-emitting diode (LED). The method including sensing, via a first sensor, a first light intensity corresponding to a natural light in a room, sensing, via a second sensor, a second light intensity for a zone of the room, determining, via the controller, an expected light intensity, and determining, via the controller, whether the second light intensity exceeds the expected light intensity. The method further including, in response to determining that the second light intensity exceeds the expected light intensity, determining, via the controller, an artificial light intensity, determining, via the controller, the drive signal based on a desired light intensity for the zone of the room, the artificial light intensity, the first light intensity, and the second light intensity, and controlling, via the controller, the driver to provide the drive signal to the LED array.
