  • Patent number: 10598363
    Abstract: Disclosed is a lighting fixture (200) with a separately controllable set of LED-based light sources (102) configurable to create both downlighting and wall-washing lighting effects. To create the desired wall-washing effects, the intensity and angle of light sources in the lighting fixture are adjusted to individually illuminate different portions of the wall of surface. One set of LED-based light sources positioned along the edge of the ceiling tile is configured to emit a low intensity light beam toward the upper portion of the wall surface adjacent the ceiling. Another set of LED-based light sources emits a higher intensity light beam toward an intermediate portion of the wall surface. Another set of LED-based light sources emits an even higher intensity light beam toward the bottom portion of the wall surface.

  • Patent number: 10588198
    Abstract: A lighting system comprises at least one luminaire arranged to illuminate an area shared by a plurality of users. From at least one of the users, at least one level adjustment instruction is received, denoting an illumination level instructed by that user for the shared area. When operating in a manual control mode for the shared area, the at least one luminaire is controlled to emit illumination at the illumination level denoted by the most recently received of the level adjustment instruction(s). A plurality of user profiles is generated, each of a respective one of the users and comprising preference information, wherein the preference information for the at least one user is derived from his at least one level adjustment instruction. A consensus illumination level for the shared area is determined, by combining the preference information of at least two of the user profiles stored in the memory.

  • Patent number: 10071220
    Abstract: In summary the invention relates to a stimuli control system configured for finding ambient stimuli from a database in a way so that the ambient stimuli having the most promising effect on stress reduction is selected. The selection may be performed based on a probability distribution created for describing how likely it is that a given ambient stimuli has a positive effect on the stress level for a given patient or other user. The database is a multiuser database which may be updated based on experiences from users' already registered ambient stimuli.

  • Patent number: 9999117
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods and apparatus for lighting control. For example, a user may commission a touch-controlled luminaire (106) to emit light output having various lighting properties dependent on a manner in which the touch-controlled luminaire is touched subsequently. In particular, a user may use an electronic mobile device (102) such as a smart phone, tablet computer, or a wearable computing device (e.g., computing glasses, smart watches) to associate a touch event profile indicative of a manner in which a touch-controlled luminaire was touched (e.g., tapped, swiped, etc.) with a lighting control action. The user may then provide that association to the touch-controlled luminaire. When the touch-controlled luminaire is later touched in the same manner, it may adjust its light output in accordance with the lighting control action. Operation and commission of gesture-controlled luminaires (706) is also described herein.

  • Patent number: 9989218
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for adjusting at least one lighting parameter based on user action. For example, methods and apparatus adjust one of a minimum set point and a maximum set point in response to a user manipulation of a component of a light management system (10, 110). The adjusted at least one of the minimum set point and the maximum set point are adjusted based on a measured interior illuminance value after the user manipulation. The set points may be indicative of user desired levels of interior illuminance.
