Presented are concepts for controlling cove lighting. Once such concept provides cove lighting adapted to output decorative light for illuminating the ceiling of an architectural space. The cove lighting comprises a control unit adapted to individually control each of the primary light sources in response to a lighting control signal so that the output decorative light mimics an outdoor lighting condition.

The invention provides a lighting device configured to present to an observer a spatially dynamic sparkling light dis play. The device comprises a luminaire containing a plurality of light sources (28) located on a first surface portion, and arranged to direct light in a direction of a plurality of light transmissive areas (32) formed within an opposing second surface portion. The opposing second surface portion may at least partially bound a chamber (14) within which the primary light sources are disposed, where an internal surface arrangement of the chamber is configured to absorb at least part of the spectral composition of any light emitted by the primary light sources which does not fall directly onto the light transmissive areas.

An electrical supply module including: a composite board including an anode layer and a cathode layer of electrically conducting material, which anode layer and cathode layer are separated by an insulator of electrically insulating material, the anode layer and the cathode layer each having a trench extending from a connection surface of the composite board; an adapter for mounting in a hole extending entirely through or partly through the composite board, the adapter including a circuit board carrying an electronic component, the circuit board establishing electrical connection from the anode layer to an anode of the electronic component and electrical connection from the cathode layer to a cathode of the electronic component; and a power supply capable of providing a constant voltage or a constant current between the anode layer and the cathode layer. An electrical supply system including the electrical supply module and an extension module.

The present invention addresses the problem of providing a video display device that projects and displays video including starry sky images onto a target surface, that can reproduce the twinkling of stars and that can more faithfully reproduce an actual starry sky. Provided are a light source, a projection lens, a starry-sky projection negative plate, a twinkling negative plate with uneven light-transmitting properties, a starry-sky-end support unit that supports the starry-sky projection negative plate in a location onto which light from the light source is radiated, a twinkling-end support unit that supports the twinkling negative plate between the starry-sky projection negative plate and the projection lens or between the light source and the starry-sky projection negative plate, and an actuation mechanism that rotationally actuates, by power from an actuator, the starry-sky projection negative plate in a state of being supported by the starry-sky-end support unit and the twinkling negative plate in a state of being supported by the twinkling-end support unit. Light that has penetrated the starry-sky projection negative plate and the twinkling negative plate is radiated onto the target surface via the projection lens.

A laser projection light includes a housing defining a light outlet window; a grating assembly near the light outlet window, a first laser device, a second laser device, a optical lens used for reflecting a part of laser light from the first laser device along a first direction and permitting the other part of the laser light to pass through, a first optical reflector used for reflecting laser light which has passed through the first optical lens, a second optical reflector located in the first direction, a third optical reflector configured in the second direction, and one or two drive devices having two drive shafts connected with the second optical reflector and the third optical reflector respectively. The second and the third optical reflectors are driven by the one or two drive devices via the two drive shafts to rotate synchronously or unsynchronously.

A system and method for creating a trompe-l'oeil skylight in a ceiling where a light emitting image of the sky is provided in a structure configured to emulate a skylight frame, including an embodiment of a unified non-rectangular sky image area in a substantially rectangular fixture which mount as a single unit into a substantially rectangular hole in a ceiling.

A lighting module has an LED (44), a lens (45) over the LED to produce a beam-shaped output from the LED and a collimator (50) arranged to partially collimate the beam-shaped out-put. Blue light is provided at large angles to the normal, for example using a filter arrangement (54, 56) over the collimator which is adapted to filter light from the collimator at relatively large angles to the normal. The filter arrangement does not filter light from the collimator at relatively small angles to the normal. Thus, the module provides white task light in a normal direction and blue ambient light at steep angles. The overall system can be compact and light efficient.

An illumination apparatus that is to be disposed in a recess formed in a part of a building includes: a light-emitting module that includes a board and a plurality of light-emitting elements disposed on the board; a light diffuser that has translucency and covers the light-emitting module; and a light reflector that includes a wall having light-reflecting properties and surrounding the plurality of light-emitting elements. Among the plurality of light-emitting elements, every two adjacent light-emitting elements are disposed on the board at a first interval. Among the plurality of light-emitting elements, a light-emitting element closest to the wall is disposed on the board with a second interval to the wall, the second interval being larger than of the first interval and smaller than the first interval.

An illumination apparatus includes: a case having an opening portion; a first light source disposed in the case and including a plurality of light-emitting elements; a light diffuser which is disposed in the opening portion, diffuses and transmits light emitted from the first light source, and from which the diffused light and the transmitted light exit; a light emission component disposed outside a light exit region of the light diffuser on a light exit surface side of the light diffuser; and a second light source that emits light to the light emission component to cause the light emission component to radiate light.
