    Abstract: Disclosed are examples of optical/electrical devices including a variable TIR lens assembly having a transducer, an optical lens and an electrowetting cell coupled to an exterior wall of the lens. The electrowetting cell contains two immiscible liquids having different optical and electrical properties. One liquid has a high index of refraction, and the other liquid has a low index of refraction. At least one liquid is electrically conductive. A signal causes the high index of refraction and the low index of refraction liquids to assume various positions within the electrowetting cell along the exterior wall. The properties of the optical lens, e.g. its total internal reflectivity, change depending upon the position of the respective liquids along the exterior wall. The light detection characteristics of the assembly change to receive an input light beam over a range of inputs or over a range of fields of view.

    Abstract: An example of a lighting system includes intelligent lighting devices, each of which includes a light source, a communication interface and a processor coupled to control the light source. In such a system, at least one of the lighting devices includes a user input sensor to detect user activity related to user inputs without requiring physical contact of the user; and at least one of the lighting devices includes an output component to provide information output to the user. One or more of the processors in the intelligent lighting devices are further configured to process user inputs detected by the user input sensor, control lighting and control output to a user via the output component so as to implement an interactive user interface for the system, for example, to facilitate user control of lighting operations of the system and/or to act as a user interface portal for other services.

    Abstract: An example of a building automation system utilizes intelligent system elements, some of which are lighting devices having light sources, and some of which are utility building control and automation elements. Some utility building control and automation elements include a controllable mechanism for use in control of some aspect of the building other than lighting. Another intelligent system element may include either a user interface component and be configured as a building controller, or include a detector and be configured as a sensor. Each intelligent system element includes a network communication interface, processor, memory and programming to configure the intelligent system element as a lighting device, utility building control and automation element, controller or sensor. At least one of the intelligent lighting devices is configured as a building control and automation system server. Several examples, however, implement the overall control using distributed processing.

    Abstract: A wearable user interface device provides a display (e.g. an augmented reality display) for a user/wearer. The device includes a camera or other optical sensor and wireless communication capability. The camera or sensor provides an input to detect and possibly communicate with a lighting device or system. The communications and display capabilities allow the device to obtain and present lighting-related information to the wearer. For example, before installation, the device may identify a light fixture and communicate with a server to obtain information about fixture installation or configuration. As another example, the user can operate the device to identify and communicate with an installed fixture, to configure the fixture into a system (e.g. as part of a lighting group) or to check or repair fixture or system firmware. Hence, the device provides a wearable, interactive user interface for a variety of lighting-related functions.

    Abstract translation: 可戴式的用户界面装置为用户/佩戴者提供显示（例如增强现实显示）。 该装置包括相机或其他光学传感器和无线通信能力。 相机或传感器提供输入以检测并可能与照明装置或系统通信。 通信和显示功能允许设备获得并向佩戴者呈现与照明有关的信息。 例如，在安装之前，设备可以识别灯具并与服务器通信以获得关于灯具安装或配置的信息。 作为另一示例，用户可以操作设备以识别并与安装的夹具通信，将夹具配置到系统（例如作为照明组的一部分）中，或者检查或修理夹具或系统固件。 因此，该设备为各种与照明相关的功能提供可穿戴的交互式用户界面。

    Abstract: An exemplary lighting system utilizes intelligent system elements, such as lighting devices, user interfaces for lighting control or the like and possibly sensors, and utilizes network communication amongst such intelligent system elements. Some processing functions performed within the system are implemented on a distributed processing basis, by two or more of the intelligent elements of the lighting system. Distributed processing, for example, may enable use of available processor and/or memory resources of a number of intelligent system elements to process a particular job. Another distributed processing approach might entail programming to configure two or more of the intelligent system elements to implement multiple instances of a server functionality with respect to client functionalities implemented on intelligent system elements.
