  • Patent number: 11002425
    Abstract: An optical cover for a linear light source includes a portion of an optical material that forms a cross-section transverse to an axial direction. The cross-section curves so that its inner surface is substantially concave and its outer surface is substantially convex. The outer surface is substantially smooth, and the inner surface forms facets. Each of the facets refracts light, and connects with an adjacent facet. Each of the facets defines a peak height from the outer surface, and each pair of adjacent facets defines a valley height from the outer surface. The peak heights of all facets exceed the valley heights between adjacent pairs of facets, and the peak height of each selected facet does not exceed twice the valley height between the selected facet and a facet adjacent to the selected facet.

  • Patent number: 10874006
    Abstract: A light fixture controller is configured for controlling the color temperature and intensity of a light fixture that includes at least two LED groups. Each LED group includes multiple LEDs configured to produce light at certain color temperatures. The light fixture controller receives a color temperature setting and an intensity setting for the light fixture and generates control signals based on these settings. A first control signal only turns on the first LED group for a first duration of a cycle and a second control signal only turns on the second LED group for a second duration of the cycle. The ratio between the first and second duration is determined based on the color temperature setting. The control signal further includes a dimming control signal for controlling a current flowing through the LED groups based on the intensity setting for the light fixture.
