  • Patent number: 11985742
    Abstract: A method and system of supplementing a main illuminating light with a supplementary illuminating light using a plurality of solid-state light emitters to illuminate a space according to a target illumination spectrum are provided. The method can include determining or receiving a reference illumination spectrum associated with the main illuminating light. The method can also include determining a spectral deviation between the reference illumination spectrum and the target illumination spectrum. The method can further include controlling the solid-state light emitters to emit respective emitter beams forming the supplementary illuminating light and illuminating the space along with the main illuminating light, the emitter beams having respective emitter spectra together defining a supplementary illumination spectrum of the supplementary illuminating light.

  • Patent number: 11758633
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for generating a dynamic lighting scenario over a scenario timeline using solid-state light emitters. The method can include a step of providing a plurality of lighting reference points in the dynamic lighting scenario, each lighting reference point having an associated reference illumination state to be achieved at a corresponding reference moment of the scenario timeline. The method can also include a step of determining a plurality of sets of reference control parameters for the solid-state light emitters, each set of reference control parameters for producing the reference illumination state associated to a corresponding one of the plurality of lighting reference points. The method can also include driving the solid-state light emitters based on the plurality of reference control parameters to generate the dynamic lighting scenario.

  • Publication number: 20220256775
    Abstract: There are provided techniques for controlling horticultural light illuminating a crop or plant. There is provided a method that includes tracking integral indicators and/or external information representative of a growth parameter of the crop or plant, and adjusting the horticultural light based on the integral indicators and/or external information. There is also provided a system including a recipe module, a tracking module configured to track integral indicators, and a feedback loop configured to feed ongoing integral indicators to the recipe module, and, in response thereto, alter illumination instructions, thereby adjusting the lighting scenario to be transmitted to a horticultural lighting apparatus.
