  • Publication number: 20190271837
    Abstract: Embodiments of the current invention relate to a light collecting element that includes a plurality of light entrance surfaces, a light exit surface having a circularly shaped outer boundary, and a plurality of light collecting legs, each light collecting leg comprising a leg entrance surface and a leg exit surface, each light collecting leg being configured to guide and mix light entering the corresponding leg entrance surface and exiting the corresponding light collecting leg at the leg exit surface. The leg entrance surfaces of all of the light collecting legs form the plurality of light entrance surfaces of the light collecting element and the leg exit surfaces of all light collecting legs form the light exit surface having the circularly shaped outer boundary. The light collecting legs are arranged relative to one another such that light entering the light collecting legs at all leg entrance surfaces and exiting the light collecting element at the light exit surface converges at a focal plane.

  • Patent number: 9578713
    Abstract: An illumination device including a plurality of LEDs emitting light in different source colors is disclosed. The device receives an input signal indicative of at least a color and/or brightness to be emitted by the illumination device. The device also stores colorimetric data. The colorimetric data is indicative of colorimetric properties of the light emitted by the plurality of LEDs, where the colorimetric properties of the LEDs define the actual color gamut of the illumination device. The device also stores a predefined color gamut data. A processing unit generates an adjusted color gamut based on the actual color gamut and the predefined color gamut and activates the plurality of LEDs based on the input signal and the adjusted color gamut.

  • Patent number: 9329379
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an illumination device illuminating an optical gate and projecting an image of the optical gate towards a target surface. The illumination device comprises a light source module generation light, an aperture delimiting the optical gate and a projecting system adapted to image the optical gate at a target surface. The light source module comprises a number of light sources and a number of light collecting means. The light collecting means comprise a central lens aligned along and a peripheral lens at least partially surrounding the central lens. The central lens collects and converts a first part of the light from the light source images the light source between the aperture the projecting system. The peripheral lens part collects and converts a second part of said light from said light source and is adapted to concentrate said second part of said light at said aperture.

  • Patent number: 9243760
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an optical light mixer providing a homogenized and uniform light beam where the optical light mixer is formed of a solid transparent material and light enters the optical light mixer through an entrance surface and is reflected through said body to an exit surface where said light exits said optical light mixer. The optical light mixer comprises a first part formed as a pyramid frustum where the top surface of the pyramid frustum forms the entrance surface and a second part formed as a cone frustum and where the bottom surface the cone frustum forms the exit surface. The present invention relates also to an illumination device comprising a number of light sources and such optical light mixer.

  • Publication number: 20150342002
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to an illumination device comprising a plurality of LEDs emitting light in different source colors, the light of the illumination device being obtained by a combination of the source colors of the plurality of LEDs, an interface adapted to receive an input signal indicative of at least a color and/or brightness to be emitted by the illumination device, and a storage unit comprising colorimetric data indicative of colorimetric properties of the light emitted by the plurality of LEDs, where the colorimetric properties of the LEDs define the actual color gamut of the illumination device. The storage unit includes a predefined color gamut data, and a processing unit is adapted to generate an adjusted color gamut based on the actual color gamut and the predefined color gamut and generate an activation signal for the plurality of LEDs based on the input signal and the adjusted color gamut.

  • Patent number: 8757809
    Abstract: An illumination device comprising a first light source generating first light beam having a first spectral distribution and a second light source generating a second light beam having a second spectral distribution. A first dichroic reflector is positioned in the first light beam and transmits a part of the first light beam and reflects a part of the second light beam. The first and second light beam propagates initially primarily in a first direction along an optical axis and reflecting means reflects the second light beam towards the dichroic reflector. The light sources, the dichroic reflector and reflecting means are mutually arranged such that the second light beam propagates primarily in a second direction substantially opposite the first direction and towards the first light source after being reflected by the reflecting means and such that the second light beam propagates substantial in the first direction after being reflected by the dichroic reflector.

  • Patent number: 8746891
    Abstract: An illumination device a first light source array a first light source. The first light source can generate a first light beam having a first spectral distribution. The first light beam can propagate primarily in a first direction along an optical axis. A second light source array can be included, having a second light source that generates a second light beam having a second spectral distribution. Also included can be a first dichroic reflector positioned partially in the first and the second light beams. The first dichroic reflector can transmit a part of the first and the second light beams. The second light beam can propagate in a second direction towards a part of the first light source array and opposite the first direction. Further, a part of the second light beam can propagate primarily in first direction after being reflected by the first dichroic reflector.
