Publication number: 20180197912Abstract: The invention provides an LED module having a concentrated light output window. Light output from a first output window of an LED assembly (e.g. from a plurality of LEDs) is passed to an input window of a light directing element and redirected to be emitted from a second, smaller output window of a light directing element. This difference in size thereby concentrates the light output by the light directing element. The second output window (of the light directing element) is substantially perpendicular to the first output window, allowing for the size of the LED assembly in a particular dimension to not be necessarily constrained by the size of the second output window.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 16, 2016Publication date: July 12, 2018Inventors: Norbertus Antonius Maria Sweegers, Marc De Samber
