Abhishek Goyanka has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11212890
    Abstract: Lighting control systems are disclosed, which are configured to detect a rate at which a total current from a current driver is being changed. The total current is an amount of current for a plurality of LED channels comprising a first LED channel and a second LED channel. The systems are also configured to control a first current to the first LED channel and a second current to the second LED channel, the first current and the second current each being a portion of the total current. The controlling comprises: when the rate is detected as being a first slope, changing a ratio of the second current to the first current; and when the rate is detected as being a second slope different from the first slope, keeping the ratio constant while the total current is adjusted according to the dimmer control.

  • Patent number: 10827579
    Abstract: Lighting control systems are disclosed that have a plurality of current sensors and a microprocessor. A first current sensor in the plurality of current sensors measures a first current of a first LED channel, and a second current sensor measures a second current of a second LED channel. The microprocessor is configured to set a setpoint that defines a maximum current for a dimming profile of a lighting fixture, and control a biological light ratio according to the dimming profile. The ratio may be an M/P ratio of melanopic lux to photopic lux or an OPN5/OPN4 ratio of OPN5 lux to melanopic lux. The dimming profile correlates the ratio to a percentage of the maximum current.

  • Patent number: 10420184
    Abstract: Lighting control systems are disclosed that have a lighting fixture, a microprocessor, and a single dimmer control that enables a user to adjust a total current to the lighting fixture. The lighting fixture includes a first LED channel that emits a first spectrum comprising white light and a second LED channel that emits a second spectrum comprising biologically-tailored light. The microprocessor is configured to take measurements of current, store a plurality of average values of total current, set a setpoint that defines a maximum current for a dimming profile of the lighting fixture, and control a biological light ratio according to the dimming profile. The ratio may be an M/P ratio of melanopic lux to photopic lux or an OPN5/OPN4 ratio of OPN5 lux to melanopic lux. The dimming profile correlates the ratio to a percentage of the maximum current.
