Abstract: An inflatable display with dynamic lighting effect has an inflatable body, an air pump inflating the inflatable body, and a lighting assembly mounted inside the inflatable body for providing dynamic lighting variations. The lighting assembly has a light housing, a power supply, a lighting module, and a refracting module mounted in the light housing.

Abstract: Techniques and user interfaces are disclosed for controlling lighting fixtures having spatial distribution control capabilities. In some cases, the control techniques may use a high-level controller to define target and spread inputs for a desired illumination pattern provided by a lighting fixture in a given area to be lit.
