Abstract: A light fixture is disclosed, and includes a light emitting diode (LED) engine including plurality of LEDs that transmit visible light. The light fixture also includes a waveguide, where the LEDs of the LED engine surround the waveguide and transmit the visible light in a direction towards the waveguide. The light fixture also includes a second element that provides a secondary service. The light fixture also includes a housing that defines a cavity, where the LED engine and waveguide are positioned within the cavity proximate the front of the light fixture, and the a secondary element is positioned within the cavity toward the rear of the light fixture.

Abstract: A wireless device for connection to a network is disclosed. The wireless device includes an antenna for establishing a wireless connection, one or more processors, and a memory coupled to the processor. The memory stores data comprising a sequence of characters that uniquely names a particular type of network that the antenna establishes communication with and program code. When executed by the one or more processors, the program code causes the system to initially set the one or more processors into a default mode. In response to connecting the wireless device to mains power, the program code causes the system to receive network information through the wireless connection.

Abstract: The embodiment disclosed herein relates to a lighting system that includes an auxiliary lighting circuit for use with an electronic HID ballast. The lighting system comprises a power supply configured to provide power to a high intensity discharge (HID) lamp via an electronic ballast and a ballast power sensing component configured to determine the amount of power drawn by the electronic ballast and to convert this power drawn by the electronic ballast to a scaled voltage that is representative of the power drawn by an HID ballast. A lamp driver component is configured to provide power to an auxiliary lamp via the same power supply when the scaled voltage reaches a triggering threshold. A voltage regulation component is configured to regulate the power delivered to the auxiliary lamp such that the auxiliary lamp power stays within a predefined range.

Abstract: A ballast operates lamps each including a pair of electrodes. A high frequency resonant circuit generates a high frequency bus, the resonant circuit is configured for operational coupling to the electrodes of each lamp, and includes a resonant inductor and a resonant capacitance.
