Patent number: 12031713Abstract: A lighting apparatus and system which employs light sources, preferably LED boards, situated in parallel housing platforms. Two lighting platforms are arranged in a spaced-apart relationship to provide indirect lighting to the surrounding environment. Each platform mounts a light source, such as a series of LED boards. Each LED board functions as an indirect lighting source. The first one of the platforms emits light toward a nearby architectural feature or surface (e.g., a room wall or ceiling) for reflection to the environment to be lighted. A second of the platforms emits light toward the first platform; the light emitted from the second platform is reflected from the first platform to the environment to be lighted.Type: GrantFiled: October 18, 2023Date of Patent: July 9, 2024Inventors: Steven Kellison, Jaxon Patterson
