Abstract: A dual sided aircraft light assembly includes a mount structure, a plurality of first light emitters, a plurality of first optics, a plurality of second light emitters, and a plurality of second optics. The first light emitters are disposed such that, upon being energized, each emits light in a first direction that is at an acute angle relative to a reference line that extends in a reference direction. The first optics are configured to focus the light emitted from the first light emitters into a first light beam directed in the first direction. The second light emitters are disposed such that, upon being energized, each emits light in a second direction that is at an obtuse angle relative to the reference line and reference direction. The second optics focus the light emitted from the second light emitters into a second light beam directed in the second direction.

Abstract: A landing marker area light system includes a housing, a first light source, a plurality of second light sources, an optics assembly, a tunable lens, and a controller. The first light source emits a first light beam. The second light sources surround the first light source and each emits a second light beam. The optics assembly receives the first light beam and shapes the first light beam into a first geometric-shaped light beam having a first perimeter. The tunable lens receives the first geometric-shaped light beam and, in response to lens control signals, shapes the first geometric-shaped light beam into a second geometric-shaped light beam having a second perimeter that is different than the first perimeter. The controller supplies the lens control signals to the tunable lens, to thereby control the second perimeter of the second geometric-shaped light beam.
