摘要:
A device and method for producing an enhanced color image of a scene of interest captures a grayscale image of the scene of interest using a flash of infrared light and a color image of the scene of interest without using any flash of infrared light. The grayscale information from the grayscale image and the visible color information from the color image are combined to produce the enhanced color image.

A light emitting device has a light emitting diode (LED), a reflector cup, and one or more adjustment mechanisms to control the intensity profile of light emitted from the light emitting device. The reflector cup has a base and a sidewall extending outward from the base. A base adjustment mechanism controls the total amount of light reflected from the base and into the beam of light emitted from the light emitting mechanism by controlling the aggregate reflectivity of the base. A sidewall adjustment mechanism controls the angle of the sidewall relative to the base. A vertical adjustment mechanism vertically raises or lowers the LED relative to the base.

A variable focal length light source is constructed using a tunable focus length lens which can be adjusted in synchronization to the focal length of a camera lens. In one embodiment, a deformable lens is used in conjunction with an LED light source to provide the tunable focal length required for a camera flash device.

An imaging device and method for producing a flash of light utilizes pulsing of one or more color lights, e.g., red, green and blue lights, emitted from light sources to produce the flash of light. The light sources may include light emitting diode dies configured to generate different color lights.

An electronic flash, imaging device and method for producing flashes of light uses a diffractive optical element to produce a flash of light having a rectangular radiation pattern. The diffractive optical element is configured to diffract light emitted from a light source such that the radiation pattern of the light emitted from the diffractive optical element is rectangular to produce the rectangular flash of light.
摘要:
A camera flash is disclosed for producing a warm light having a desired color temperature. In one embodiment, the flash has a xenon flash component producing a light with a spectrum having a color temperature at a higher Kelvin rating than the warm light, and a light emitting diode flash component producing a light with a spectrum having a color temperature at a lower Kelvin rating than the warm light. The color temperature of the light of the xenon flash component and the color temperature of the light of the light emitting diode flash component together produce the warm light having the desired color temperature.
摘要:
A device and method for providing illuminating light utilizes quantum dots to convert at least some of the original light emitted from a light source of the device to longer wavelength light to change the color characteristics of the illuminating light. The quantum dots may be included in the light source, a light panel and/or an optional interface medium of the device.
摘要:
A light emitting device in which a primary light generator, such as a light emitting diode (LED) or laser diode, is operable to emit a primary light that is received by a body of wavelength converting material. A portion of the primary light is absorbed by the body of wavelength converting material and is emitted as secondary light. The wavelength converting material contains phosphor nano-particles and larger phosphor particles. The phosphor nano-particles prevent transmission of primary light while the larger phosphor particles provide efficient light conversion.

A system and method for a reverse mounted light array. In one method embodiment, the present invention couples a reverse mounted light-generating source with a substrate. Additionally, the present invention couples an electrical portion of the reverse mounted light generating source with a conductive trace coupled to the reverse side of the substrate, wherein the coupling of the conductive trace with the substrate and the reverse mounted light generating source forms a reverse mounted light array.
摘要:
A device and method for emitting output light utilizes both quantum dots and non-quantum fluorescent material to convert at least some of the original light emitted from a light source of the device to longer wavelength light to change the color characteristics of the output light. The device can be used to produce broad-spectrum color light, such as white light.
