Abstract: A reflector luminaire with a light-emitting means and a reflector, which reflects light from the light-emitting means which is incident on said reflector in a predetermined emission direction and which has a rim (2) which points towards the emission direction makes it possible to perform particular lighting tasks, for example the uniform illumination of a rectangular illumination area by virtue of the fact that the reflector comprises a plurality of differently designed segments (7), which are calculated individually with respect to the light-emitting means for defined illumination of a predetermined area, and by the fact that the segments (7) are joined to one another by transition sections (8), by means of which the predetermined reflecting total surface area of the segments (7) is reduced by less than ¼.

Abstract: The optical diffuser has a transparent base body with a base body surface, which is divided into facets. Each facet has an elevation or a depression correlated or associated with a second curved surface. Respective facets have correspondingly different geometrical shapes. In some embodiments the respective apexes (S) of the elevations or depressions are arranged along a spiral, especially an Archimedean spiral.

Alternatively the apexes (S) are defined by coordinates (xs?, ys?) derived from coordinates (xp, yp) of all points (P), which are defined by the arrangement of facets with regular hexagonal edge contours, by random variations with the help of a Monte Carlo method.

Abstract: The optical system for the Fresnel lens light has an ellipsoidal reflector (1), a light source (2) and a Fresnel lens (3). The distance (a) between the Fresnel lens (3) and the reflector (1) is changeable but is related to the changeable distance (b) between the light source (2) and the reflector (1) so that the aperture angle of the propagated light beam is variable but illumination intensity of the propagated light is maintained uniform. Surfaces of the at least one Fresnel lens and/or the reflector can be structured to provide more uniform illumination of a given area. The optical system is useful for lights for film, stage, studio and photography.
