Abstract: A LED controller for an LED pixel array includes an image frame buffer to receive image data and a standby image buffer connected to the image frame buffer to hold a standby image. A command and control module connected is configured to substitute the standby image in the standby image buffer for the image in the image frame buffer when image data is unavailable.

Abstract: A LED controller for an LED pixel array includes a serial interface to an external data bus, along with an address generator connected to the serial interface and the LED pixel array. An image frame buffer is connected to the interface to receive image data and further connected to the address generator to receive an image frame buffer address. A command and control module is connected to the serial interface and configured to modify image frame buffer output signals. A calibration data storage module is connected to the command and control module to store calibration data related to pixel voltage response in the LED pixel array.

Abstract: The invention describes a flexible lighting strip comprising a multitude of light-emitting diodes arranged in at least two groups. Each group comprises at least two light-emitting diodes arranged in an electrical series connection. The at least two groups are arranged in parallel to an anode track and a cathode track. The at least two groups are arranged in a longitudinal arrangement such that a last light-emitting diode of a first group is arranged next to a first light-emitting diode of a second group. The anode track and the cathode track each consist of a wire line having substantially circular wires that are bent to receive compressive and/or tensile stress. The electrical circuit provides a third wire line having a substantially circular wire as a center line arranged between the outer lines. At least one light-emitting diode of every group is mounted on an interposer which contracts all three wire lines.

Abstract: A lighting system includes a plurality of lighting units. Each lighting unit includes a unit control circuit and a lighting element. The unit control circuit is disposed to store at least one lighting scenario. The lighting scenario comprises a succession of settings of intensity and/or color of the lighting element. A system control circuit is disposed to transmit an execute signal to one or more of the lighting units. The unit control circuit is disposed to control, upon reception of the execute signal, the lighting element according to the lighting scenario. The lighting units are connected to a common electrical power supply via two conductors. The execute signal is transmitted from the system control circuit to the lighting units wirelessly or via the two conductors.
