  • Image projector for use with luminaires
    Patent number: 6793349
    Abstract: An image projector that drops into the accessory slot of a luminaire and projects high quality images printed on plastic slides in full color and photographic detail for extended time periods without heat degradation. The projector comprises a cooling fan, infrared and ultraviolet light filter means, and an inexpensive and removable slide assembly comprising a plastic image slide, a protective film slide and at least one mounting plate. The cooling fan is combined with layered, reflective filters to create a protected environment for the plastic image slide to survive the extreme heat at the gate of today's efficient luminaires. The plastic image slide is created on a plastic sheet using conventional computer printing technologies.
