    摘要: Multi-color flash with image post-processing that uses a camera device with a multi-color flash and implements post-processing to generate images is described. In one aspect, the multi-color flash with image post-processing may be implemented by a controller configured to control a camera and flashes of at least two different colors. The controller may be configured to cause the camera to acquire a first image of a scene while the scene is being illuminated with the first flash but not the second flash, then cause the camera to acquire a second image of the scene while the scene is being illuminated with the second flash but not the first flash, and generate a final image of the scene in post-processing based on a combination of the first image and the second image.

    摘要: The disclosure describes a precollimator for a lighting device, including: a) a number of first collimator units each having an entry face and an exit plane, wherein for each first collimator unit the exit plane is wider than the entry face in a first direction and the entry face and the exit plane have the same width in a second direction that is perpendicular to the first direction and b) a second collimator unit having an entry plane and an exit face, wherein the exit face is wider than the entry plane in the second direction, and wherein the exit plane of each first collimator unit is optically connected to the entry plane of the second collimator unit, wherein the precollimator is joined together from at least two components. The disclosure further describes such lighting device and a method to manufacture such precollimator.

    摘要: Various embodiments include apparatuses and methods enabling a control apparatus for color tuning a light-emitting diode (LED) array. In one example, a controllable-lighting apparatus includes an LED array having at least one desaturated red LED, at least one desaturated green LED, and at least one desaturated blue LED. A number of color-tuning and luminous-flux control devices includes an adjustable correlated color temperature (CCT)-control device for setting a desired color temperature of the LED array, an adjustable Duv-control device for setting a desired overall color cast of the LED array along an isothermal CCT line corresponding to the desired color temperature, and an adjustable flux-control device for setting a desired luminous-flux value of the LED array. Other apparatuses and methods are described.

    摘要: A method of fabricating closely spaced pcLEDs arranged in a matrix array of perpendicular rows and columns comprises an initial phosphor deposition step in which phosphor is deposited at alternating locations (pixels) in the matrix array in a checkerboard pattern, so that the locations in the array at which phosphor is deposited are not adjacent to each other. In a subsequent phosphor deposition step phosphor is deposited at the alternating locations at which phosphor was not deposited in the first deposition step. In between the two phosphor deposition steps, reflective or scattering structures may be fabricated on sidewalls of the phosphor pixels to optically isolate pcLEDs in the resulting array from each other.

    摘要: A lighting device comprises a light-emitting module with light-emitting elements, wherein the light-emitting elements are arranged adjacent to each other and are configured to emit light towards a light-emitting side. The light-emitting module is configured such that the light-emitting elements can be addressed partially independently of each other, such that some may be brought into a switched-on state while others are brought into a switched-off state. A top layer is disposed on the light-emitting module at the light-emitting side. Further comprising a switching material capable of a reversible change in transmittance for the light emitted by changing to a higher transmittance in regions where the top layer situated on light-emitting elements in the switched-on state or to a lower transmittance in regions of the top layer situated in the switched-off state. The invention further refers to methods for producing and operating a lighting device and using a lighting device.
