Abstract:
An illumination device with a number of light sources arranged in at least two groups of light sources that are individually controllable. The first group of light sources (203) have light collectors (209) such as internal reflection (TIR) lenses, mixers or other lenses placed over them to collect and convert light of the light sources into a number of light source beams. The second group of light sources (205) pass light through diffusing areas (215) of a diffuser (213) in the form of a diffusion cover included in the lamp housing to diffuse the light and create a background light for the first group of light sources. The light from the first group of light sources pass through non diffusing regions (211) of the diffuser cover without the light being diffused. The second group of light sources are interleaved with the first group by the diffuser having one or several diffusion areas between non diffusion areas. By controlling both groups of light sources based on the same target color the dotted look of led light sources can be removed or by controlling the two groups of light sources based on two different colors light effects can be obtained. The illumination device can be included in a moving head light source with a base, a yoke connected rotatably to the base and the head connected rotatably to the head.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a dual function light controller for a lighting system comprising a number of light emitting devices. The dual function light controller acts in a stand-alone mode of operation as an independent light controller controlling the lighting system and acts in a peripheral mode of operation act as a peripheral device which at least partially is controlled by a main controller controlling the lighting system. The dual function light controller comprises user switching means enabling a user to switch between the stand-alone mode of operation and the peripheral mode of operation. The present invention relates also to a lighting system comprising such dual function light control device.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an illumination device including a number of LEDs and a processor for receiving an input signal and generating an activation signal for at least one of the LEDs based on the input signal. The illumination device further comprises an LED driver for obtaining the voltage across and current through the LED. The processor may generate the activation signal based on the voltage, the current and a current-voltage model related to the LED. The current-voltage model defines a relationship between the current, the voltage and the colorimetric properties of light emitted by the LED. The present invention relates also to a method of controlling and a method of calibrating such an illumination device.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a flexible LED pixel string comprising a number of LED pixels interconnected by a flexible cable, where the flexible LED pixel string comprises a connector for connecting the flexible LED pixel string to a data and power feeder. The flexible cable comprises a first conductor being a power line, a second conductor being a data line, a third conductor being a clock line, a fourth conductor being a first ground line and a third conductor being a second ground line. The data line or the clock line are arranged between the first ground line and the second ground line.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a moving head light fixture comprising: a base; a yoke rotatable connected to the base; a head rotatable connected to the yoke. The head comprises at least one light source generating light. An actuator is adapted to rotate the yoke or the head. Magnetic means is attached to the axel of the actuator and generated a magnetic field, which is perpendicular to the actuator axel. A magnetic encoder is fixed in relation to the axel and provides at an axel position signal based the magnetic field is indicative of the angular position of the axel in relation to the magnetic encoder. Indication means provides an indication signal when the yoke or head is positioned at a number of predetermined angular positions in relation. Processing means are adapted to control the moving head light fixture based on the actuator axel position signal and the indication signal.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to an illumination device comprising a number of light sources arranged in at least a first group of light sources and in a second group of light sources, where said first group of light sources and said second group of light sources are individually controllable. First and second optical means collect light from the first and second group of light sources and convert the collected light into a number of first and second light beams. The illumination device comprises further first and second zoom optics adapted to change the beam diverges and/or width of respectively the first and second light beams and the illumination device is capable of controlling the first and second zoom optics individually. The present invention relates further to a method of controlling such illumination device.
