  • Publication number: 20200318810
    Abstract: An illumination device can include a plurality of light sources, a first beam combiner, and a plurality of filters. The plurality of light sources can include first and second light sources configured to generate first and second light beams respectively. The first beam combiner can be configured to receive light from the first and second light sources and combine the first and second light beams to generate a composite light beam. The plurality of filters can include a first filter configured to controllably adjust a spectral power distribution of the first light beam incident on the first filter and a second filter configured to controllably adjust a spectral power distribution of the second light beam incident on the second filter. The first and second filters can be configured to be tuned to alter the spectral power distribution of the first and second light beams.

  • Patent number: 10392854
    Abstract: Embodiments for an automated sliding door system having a slide and rail assembly engaged to a door panel for automatically sliding the door panel relative to a door frame are described. The slide and rail assembly is in operative communication with microprocessor that executes software to adjust various operational parameters of the slide and rail assembly to operate the automatic sliding door.

  • Publication number: 20110236591
    Abstract: A process for powering an electrical load includes applying a rectified alternating current waveform across the load for a first time period with only a single power supply for at least two half cycles. At least one half cycle of an alternating current waveform of opposite polarity are then applied relative to the rectified alternating current waveform across the load for a second time period. Rectified alternating current waveform is then again applied across the load for at least two half cycles for a third time period to power the electrical load. The rectified alternating current waveform can be applied a direct current offset. A power supply is provided for provided power across the load according to this process.
