  • Publication number: 20210131622
    Abstract: A Light-Emitting Diode (LED) apparatus has a power source outputting a source DC power at a source DC voltage, a plurality of LEDs drivable at a driving DC voltage lower than the source DC voltage, and an electrical path connecting the power source to each LED for powering the LED by the power source. Each electrical path comprises a first portion connected to the power source at the source DC voltage and a second portion connected to the LED at the driving DC voltage, and the length of the first portion is longer than that of the second portion.

  • Publication number: 20200278097
    Abstract: A lighting system has a power source formed by a solar panel and a battery assembly, a lighting assembly having a plurality of lighting devices arranged into a plurality of lighting groups, the light assembly having a predetermined maximum power, and a multiple-input power converter electrically coupled to the power source and the lighting assembly for powering the lighting assembly using the power source, and for charging the battery assembly using the solar panel. The multiple-input power converter is configured for calculating a power upper-bound based on the level of stored energy in the battery assembly and the length of a night time, and selecting at least a subset of the lighting groups and powering the selected lighting groups for illumination using the battery assembly for preventing exhausting the stored energy of the battery assembly before the battery assembly can be charged by the solar panel.

  • Publication number: 20200068810
    Abstract: A Light-Emitting Diode (LED) system for facilitating the growth of a plant includes at least one LED array having one or more LEDs for emitting colored light spectra absorbable by a plant, a light detector for detecting light reflected from the plant, and a LED light driver electrically coupled to the at least one LED array and the light detector. The LED light driver receives electrical power from a power source and drives the at least one LED array using the received electrical power; receives from the light detector a signal indicative of the reflected light spectra, and controls the at least one LED array to adjust at least one of the intensities and the spectra of the light emitted from the at least one LED array, based on the received signal.
