Abstract: A lighting system can comprise a frame, a material attached on a front facing surface of the frame and a plurality of LEDs mounted within the frame. Light emitted from the LEDs is directed to the material from behind the front facing surface of the frame. In some of these embodiments, the material passes a portion of the emitted light thereby causing the transmitted emitted light to appear as if light reflects or emanates from a front surface of the material. A controller is described that controls color of the emitted light to form patterns on the front surface of the material. The plurality of LEDs can include different colored LEDs, multi-color LEDs and RGB LEDs. The RGB LEDs can be controlled to respond to a video signal, thereby displaying a video image on the material. The material comprises a textured material and may possess a three-dimensional profile.

Abstract: A decorative dome with controlled light enhancement consisting of a substantially concave structure having opposed front and rear faces and a plurality of apertures extending therethrough, for receipt of a plurality of optical fibers, extending between the interior surface of the concave structure, to a plurality of light emitting diodes (“LEDs”) mounted in a junction box mounted on the outer periphery of the rear face of the concave structure. The junction box also contains a control circuit for varying the duration and intensity of the plurality of LEDs, with the junction box constructed so as to dissipate heat generated by the LEDs. The LED's direct light into the receiving end of each said optical fibers such that light from the respective LEDs are directed through the optical fibers and from the emitting ends of the optical fibers at the front face of the concave structure. The plurality of apertures on the front face of the concave structure are arranged in a selected patent discernable by a viewer.
