  • Publication number: 20190146136
    Abstract: A lighting arrangement and a method of coupling light into a light guide are described. A light source is embedded within a light guide. The light guide includes first and second outer surfaces arranged on opposite sides. A forward direction extends from the light source parallel to the first outer surface. A collimator is embedded within the light guide. The collimator comprises a first reflector surface facing towards the second outer surface and a second reflector surface facing towards the first outer surface. The light source is arranged to emit light between the first and second reflector surfaces. The first reflector surface is arranged at least substantially parallel to the forward direction. At least a portion of the second reflector surface is arranged under an angle to the forward direction.

  • Publication number: 20190123095
    Abstract: Described herein is source sensitive optic that uses reconfigurable chip-on-board (CoB) light emitting diode (LED) arrays as light sources. In an implementation, the reconfigurable CoB LED array includes a predetermined number of LEDs that are configurable for a variety of illumination scenarios. In an implementation, the reconfigurable CoB LED array is multiple CoB LED arrays that are configured for use with the source sensitive optic as described herein. The source sensitive optic includes surface shapes that are responsive to the reconfigurable CoB LED array. The source sensitive optic is configured to provide beam profile and radiation pattern differentiation based on a CoB LED array configuration configured from the reconfigurable CoB LED. Each configurable CoB LED array configuration radiates a different beam pattern via the surface shapes due to proximity and surface shape geometries.
