An inner lens can be positioned over the LED assembly to control the distribution of light. A reflector can be positioned over the LED assembly instead of the inner lens to control the light.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing of a lens for distribution of light from a light emitter. The method provides an injection-molding cavity defined by a shape-forming configuration with a texturing in at least one area of the cavity. A thermoplastic elastomer is injected into the cavity shaping a lens-region thickness of the elastomer. Such lens-region thickness is cooled and set prior to sinking of the elastomer such that the lens-region thickness retains the texturing of the shape-forming configuration forming a textured surface portion of the lens.

Abstract: A lens for distribution of light predominantly toward a preferential side from a light emitter having an emitter axis. The lens has a faceted output region, a smooth output surface and at least one reflective surface which reflects light through total-internal-reflection (TIR) toward the faceted output region. The faceted output region is formed by pairs of transverse surfaces each surface of which redirects the received light to provide a composite illuminance pattern. The lens may further have faceted input surfaces at least partially defining a light-input cavity about the emitter axis. The faceted input region are formed by pairs of transverse surfaces each surface of which redirects the received light.

Abstract: In one aspect, luminaires are described herein having sensor modules integrated therein. In one aspect, a luminaire described herein comprises a light emitting face including a LED assembly. A sensor module is integrated into the luminaire at a position at least partially overlapping the light emitting face. In another aspect, a luminaire described herein comprises a LED assembly and a driver assembly. A sensor module is integrated into the luminaire along or more convective air current pathways cooling the LED assembly or driver assembly.

Abstract: A lens for distribution of light from a light emitter having an emitter axis. The lens comprising an inner surface and an output surface with faceted and smooth outer regions. At least one of the faceted outer regions is formed by a plurality of pairs of transverse outer regions extending in direction of a plane of bilateral symmetry of the lens. The inner surface defines an inner cavity about the emitter axis and has inner-surface stepwise discontinuities formed by a plurality of pairs of transverse inner regions with intersection regions therebetween. The lens may also have at least two secondary surface portions spaced apart and extending along two sides of the inner surface, the secondary surface portions being configured for total internal reflection (TIR) of light received from the inner surface.

Abstract: A troffer light fixture has a housing with a LED assembly positioned in the housing. The LED assembly includes at least one LED array comprising LEDs of at least two different colors. The LED assembly includes a first LED array having a first LED on a first string and a second LED on a second string and a second LED array having a third LED on a third string and fourth LED on a fourth string. A wide lens covers the LED array. A reflector assembly has a first reflective surface and a second reflective surface reflecting light from the at least one LED array laterally across the width of the wide lens. Alternatively, the LED array may be approximately one-half the width of the wide lens and the reflector may be eliminated.

Abstract: A waveguide includes a light coupling portion has an interior surface and an exterior surface. The exterior surface includes light coupling features. LEDs emit light into the light coupling features. A light emitting portion has an interior surface and an exterior surface where the exterior surface defines a light emitting surface. The light emitting portion is disposed adjacent the light coupling portion. A light transmission portion optically couples the light coupling portion to the light emitting portion. A footprint of the light coupling portion is substantially the same or less than a footprint of the light emitting portion.

Abstract: A luminaire has a light emitting portion extending between first second end caps to define a length between the first end cap and the second end cap. The first end cap comprises a receptacle and the second end cap comprises a post both of which extend in an insertion direction. The receptacles are configured to closely receive the posts and the insertion direction is disposed transversely to the length. A method of assembling a luminaire assembly includes positioning a first end cap of a first luminaire over a second end cap of a second luminaire; moving the first end cap relative to the second end cap in the insertion direction; and inserting the post into the receptacle. An electrical connector on the first end cap may connect with a mating electrical connector on the second end cap to complete an electrical connection between the first luminaire and the second luminaire.
