Intelligent lighting devices, with sensors, programmed processors and communication capabilities and networked with a hierarchy of computers, to form a system to monitor one or more conditions external to the lighting devices not directly related to operational performance of the respective lighting devices, for a variety of applications separate and in addition to the lighting related functions of the networked devices.
摘要:
The present teachings relate to semiconductor-based lighting systems and fixtures which process electromagnetic energy from light emitting diodes or the like. A disclosed exemplary system includes at least one occluded remote phosphor and produces substantially white light of desired characteristics. The remote phosphor extends over at least a portion of a surface of a macro optic at an occluded location such that none of the remote phosphor is directly visible through an optical aperture. The phosphor is responsive to electromagnetic energy from a semiconductor device to emit visible light for the emission through the optical aperture.

Solid state light emitting devices and/or solid state lighting devices use three or more phosphors excited by energy from a solid state source. The phosphors are selected and included in proportions such that the visible light output of such a device exhibits a radiation spectrum that approximates a black body radiation spectrum for the rated color temperature for the device, over at least a predetermined portion of the visible light spectrum.
摘要:
A lamp for general lighting applications utilizes solid state light emitters and provides light output that may approximate light emissions from of an incandescent lamp. An exemplary lamp includes a bulb and a pedestal extending into the bulb that supports the light emitters in orientations such that emissions from the emitters through the bulb approximate emissions from a filament of an incandescent lamp. An inner member around the emitters and the pedestal provides further light processing, e.g. diffusing and/or phosphor luminescence. The lamp conforms to form factors and/or uses lamp base connectors of common incandescent lamps and/or compact fluorescent lamps. For efficient substitution of components during manufacture of lamps to different specifications, at least some examples use modular couplings for the parts of the lamp to the heat sink or other housing, such as for couplings of the lamp base, the bulb and the inner light processing member (if provided).
摘要:
Lighting systems and devices offer dynamic control or tuning of a color characteristic of light. The lighting devices or systems utilize separately controlled sources to pump phosphors. The lighting systems and devices are configured to enable adjustment of intensities of electromagnetic energy emitted by the sources to independently adjust levels of excitations of the phosphors, in order to control a color characteristic of the visible light output of the lighting system or device.
摘要:
A tube lamp has a tubular portion that serves both as a light guide for energy from a solid state source and as a container for a material bearing a nanophosphor that is pumped by the energy from the source as the energy traverses the light guide. However, the tubular portion of the light guide also allows emission of light produced by the phosphor when excited. The material with the nanophosphor dispersed therein may appear either clear or translucent when the lamp is off and the nanophosphor is not excited by energy from the source.
摘要:
At least one controllable source of visible light is configured to illuminate a space to be utilized by one or more occupants. A controller causes the source(s) to emit light in a manner that varies at least one characteristic of visible light emitted into the space over a period of time at least in part in accordance with a chaotic function.

The present application generally relates to techniques and equipment for color correction of natural daylight. More particularly, the present application relates to color correction of daylight entering the interior of a structure to maintain a substantially constant color temperature over a period of time through deployment of an opto-luminescent material in a daylighting device. The color correction through deployment of an opto-luminescent material and/or color filter in a daylighting device preferably maintains high lumen intensity.

Exemplary lighting devices have sensors, intelligence in the form of programmed processors and communication capabilities. Such a device is configured to monitor one or more conditions external to a lighting device not directly related to operational performance of the respective lighting device. One or more such devices can work in a networked system, to support a variety of applications separate and in addition to the lighting related functions of the device(s).
摘要:
An optical/electrical transducer device has housing, formed of a thermally conductive section and an optically transmissive member. The section and member are connected together to form a seal for a vapor tight chamber. Pressure within the chamber configures a working fluid to absorb heat during operation of the device, to vaporize at a relatively hot location as it absorbs heat, to transfer heat to and condense at a relatively cold location, and to return as a liquid to the relatively hot location. The transducer device also includes a wicking structure mounted within the chamber to facilitate flow of condensed liquid of the working fluid from the cold location to the hot location. At least a portion of the wicking structure comprises semiconductor nanowires, configured as part of an optical/electrical transducer within the chamber for emitting light through and/or driven by light received via the transmissive member.
