Abstract: Oftentimes a site owner requires onsite capture devices (e.g., still or video cameras, microphones) for reasons of security, increasing revenue (e.g., streaming content to subscribed users), or otherwise. In the current state of the art various capture devices come from a variety of vendors and are often only adapted to work with software from the same manufacturer. It can be frustrating for a site owner to attempt to cobble together a capture and distribution system from individual parts and devices. Discussed herein is an approach to producing a capture and distribution system customized to an owner's particular needs and a site's particular characteristics in which capture devices are at least partially factory wired, aimed, and commissioned so to reduce both time on site to install of said capture devices and potential errors in the installation, and in a manner that in at least some cases adds value for the owner.

Abstract: An apparatus, method, and system for a flexible approach to lighting design is discussed including temporary lighting designs, target areas with changing requirements, or tamper- and environmentally-resistant ground-mounted lighting fixtures for architectural or aesthetic lighting. Envisioned are fixtures typically comprising multiple compact LED modules mounted in one or more rows in a compact frame, capable of independent adjustment about at least two axes, having a wide range of aiming angles from a common pivotable joint, and preserving a thermal dissipation path regardless of aiming angle.

Abstract: A method, system and apparatus including a compact LED light source module comprising a base adapted to mount to a surface or in a fixture; one or more LEDs mounted to an LED mounting interface on the base, the LED mounting interface having a pre-designed geometry related to a pre-designed primary orientation of each LED relative the base; a light transmissive cover over the one or more LEDs, the light transmissive cover having the ability, if needed, to further alter or control the light output distribution of the one or more LEDs; to provide a compact LED light source that can be both substantially standardized but can produce a variety of light output distributions.

Abstract: An apparatus, method, and system for lighting target areas with bollard or pagoda-type lights in a controlled and efficient manner. The apparatus includes a housing with a light source, optic system, and a control circuit. The light source and optic system are configured to produce a highly controlled output beam pattern and shield from normal viewing angles direct sight of the source. This enables control of glare and spill light which can improve effectiveness, efficiency, and energy usage.

Abstract: Apparatus, methods, and systems for a novel approach to on-site evaluation and demonstration of illumination schemes to fit the unique needs of a defined area or object. The system provides a versatile method of producing a wide range of illumination schemes from a limited number of components and allows for optional add-on features or replaceable modules to simulate various lighting characteristics from various types of lighting fixtures, including commercially available fixtures or custom fixtures. Methods of wireless control described herein help to achieve the purpose of the mobile lighting evaluation system in that a system operator may evaluate and/or demonstrate illumination schemes from a convenient remote location.

Abstract: An apparatus, method, or system of lighting units comprising a plurality of lighting elements, such as one or more LEDs, each element having an associated optic which is individually positionable. In embodiments of the present invention, one or more optics are developed using optimization techniques that allow for lighting different target areas in an effective manner by rotating or otherwise positioning the reflectors, refractive lenses, TIR lenses, or other lens types to create a composite beam. The apparatus, method, or system of lighting herein makes it possible to widely vary the types of beams from an available fixture using a small number of inventoried optics and fixtures. In some cases, by using a combination of individual beam patterns, a small set of individual optics would be sufficient to create a majority of the typical and specialized composite beams needed to meet the needs of most lighting projects and target areas.
