  • Patent number: 11792898
    Abstract: An area lamp includes an emitter array and driver circuitry. The emitter array includes a number of solid-state light emitters. Each one of the solid-state light emitters is configured to provide light suitable for general illumination within a field of view such that light emitted from a first subset of the number of solid-state light emitters is provided to a different portion of the field of view than light emitted from a second subset of the number of solid-state light emitters. The driver circuitry is coupled to the emitter array and configured to provide drive signals to the emitter array such that the light provided from each one of the solid-state light emitters is independently controllable and a number of drive signals is less than the number of solid-state light emitters.

    Abstract: A pixel array may be illuminated with backlight illumination from a backlight. The backlight may include a two-dimensional array of light-emitting diodes, with each light-emitting diode being placed in a respective cell. Different light-emitting diodes may have unique brightness magnitudes based on the content of the given display frame. Driver integrated circuits may control one or more associated light-emitting diodes to have a desired brightness level. The driver integrated circuits may be formed in an active area of the backlight. The driver integrated circuits may be arranged in groups that are daisy chained together. A digital signal (that includes information such as addressing information) may be propagated through the group of driver integrated circuits. To manage thermal performance of the backlight, the backlight may include a thermally conductive layer and/or a heat sink structure. To increase the efficiency of the backlight, the backlight may include one or more reflective layers.

  • Patent number: 10984775
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a light fixture for absorbing sound energy. The light fixture is composed of a body comprising a set of discs and a set of supporting elements. As an example, the discs may be annular discs with a central opening for receiving a lamp fitting and/or a reflector. The supporting elements may be pillars that are fixedly attached to the discs e.g. using a plurality of fittings. The discs may comprise a sound absorbing material, such that the light fixture is suitable for absorbing sound energy. This is particularly useful in large indoor environments such as open offices, lobbies, halls, and auditoriums, which all benefit from improved acoustics. The light fixture may comprise two or more light sources, e.g. for distributing light both radially and downwards. In one embodiment, the light fixture is a pendant light.

  • Patent number: 10928039
    Abstract: A medical lighting device for illuminating an operating area has an overhead light providing axial illumination and is movably mounted over the operating area and movable manually towards or away from the operating area, and a system for assisting adjustment of a proper lighting position for the overhead light relative to the operating area in such a manner as to position the overhead light at a predetermined distance from the operating area. The system comprises a first light source for generating a first light beam and a second light source for generating a second light beam, the light sources arranged on the overhead light in angularly offset positions so that the first and second light beams converge at a point on the operating area when the predetermined distance is reached, and otherwise when not at that distance the two light beams form two light spots that are disjoint.

  • Patent number: 10907787
    Abstract: A system and method for lighting effects, including simulating a flame, a spark, or a perpetual middle, is disclosed. One or multiple three dimensional substrates include one or multiple arrays of light sources, such as LED, mounted on or into them. A control circuit can actuate the light sources in a manner to simulate different light effects including rising and contracting sparks within a flame and a center of the flame whose properties adjust to sparks traveling through and above it. The control circuit can further actuate the light sources to simulate a real flame effect by combing a simulated spark and a simulated perpetual middle. This system can include a light engine in a light fixture such as an architectural fixture.
