    Abstract: First and second LED arrays can include respective first and second pluralities of light-emitting areas that are separated by respective first and second boundaries. The first and second boundaries can be arranged in slightly different patterns. At least one lens can collimate light from the first LED array to form first illumination, collimate light from the second LED array to form second illumination, and illuminate the scene with the first and second illuminations. The first boundaries can form first dark bands in the first illumination. The second boundaries can form second dark bands in the second illumination, which can be slightly offset from the first dark bands at the scene.

    Abstract: An illumination system can include a dual-junction light-emitting diode (LED) array including first and second junctions that extend in a plane. The first junction can emit first light from a plurality of first light-emitting areas that are separated by first boundaries. The second junction can be disposed on the first junction such that the first light passes through the second junction. The second junction can emit second light from a plurality of second light-emitting areas. The second light-emitting areas can be separated by second boundaries that correspond in a one-to-one correspondence to the first boundaries. The second boundaries can be offset in the plane from the corresponding first boundaries. The offset can help reduce or eliminate dark bands in the combined first and second light, which could be present if the second boundaries were not offset from the first boundaries.

    Abstract: A method of color error correction for a segmented LED array is disclosed. The method includes calculating a target luminance for LED segments in a segmented LED array based on an initial luminance pattern, determining a luminance ratio based on the target luminance, the luminance ratio defined as a ratio of a primary luminance value of the primary LED segment to a secondary luminance value of the at least one adjacent LED segment, and comparing the luminance ratio to a predefined threshold ratio. If the luminance ratio is greater than or equal to the predefined ratio, then the secondary luminance value of the at least one adjacent LED segment is maintained. If the luminance ratio is less than the predefined ratio, then the secondary luminance value of the at least one adjacent LED segment is increased.

    Abstract: A camera can capture an image of a scene during an exposure duration of the camera. An illumination system for the camera can include a light-emitting diode (LED) array. The LED array can include a plurality of LEDs that can produce light during the exposure duration of the camera. The LED array can include one or more non-emitting areas located between adjacent LEDs in the LED array. A lens can direct the light toward the scene as illumination. The illumination can include one or more dark bands corresponding to the one or more non-emitting areas of the LED array, optionally surrounding the LEDs in the LED array. An actuator can translate at least one of the LED array or the lens during the exposure duration of the camera so as to blur the one or more dark bands in the illumination in the image of the scene.

    Abstract: A segmented light or optical power emitting device and an illumination device are described. The segmented device includes a die having a light or optical power emitting semiconductor structure that includes an active layer disposed between an n-layer and a p-layer. Trenches are formed in at least the semiconductor structure and separate the die into individually addressable segments. The active layer emits light or optical power having a first color point or spectrum. At least one wavelength converting layer is adjacent the die and converts the light or optical power to light or optical power having at least one second color point or spectrum and limits an energy ratio of the pump light or optical power that passes through the at least one wavelength converting layer unconverted to total light or optical power emitted by the light or optical power emitting device to less than 10%.
