Light fixture embodiments for direct downlighting applications provide benefits of low overall fixture profile height, increased light output, enhanced uniformity of brightness and color by use of novel edge-lit optical elements that functions simultaneously as a diffuser and direct throughput lens, as well as an outcoupling TIR light guide. The light fixture can provide low-glare ambient light or more directional wall wash, task and accent lighting. The light fixture typically comprises a 3-dimensional extruded linear support body which retains and aligns LED boards, reflectors and edge-lit optical elements, such as a diffuser or light guide. The edge-lit design enables the height of the lighting assembly body to be equivalent to or less than the height of T-bar main beams or cross tees. This is very important in applications where there is zero or little available plenum space above the ceiling grid. Embodiments are provided that comprise mounting of the light fixture into a ceiling grid using clips or mounting hardware as well as end plates without impacting the plenum requirements. Provided are typical benefits of an edge-lit light guide design including shallow depth, extended emitting area, and off axis light distributions such as asymmetric and symmetric batwing distributions particularly useful in downlighting and other lighting applications. Additionally, area dedicated to bezels or edge reflectors can greatly improve appearance due to reduced or eliminated hotspotting and bright edges to provide a fixture face with very high percentage of light emitting area. Further embodiments are included that may be surface mounted in a cove lighting arrangement or suspended hanging from a T-bar in a suspended wood panel ceiling system. Examples are also provided of the light fixture used in ceiling grid systems incorporating drywall panels.

Systems are disclosed for providing ultraviolet (UV) energy to items on a processing surface. The system includes a lamp positioned over the processing surface to provide UV energy to the processing surface and a reflector cell positioned to cause UV energy emitted from the lamp in a direction away from the processing surface to be reflected toward the processing surface. The system includes the reflector cell having a reflector cap positioned above the lamp and a shroud extending downwardly from the reflector cap toward the conveyor wherein the shroud has a vertical dimension, a longitudinal dimension, and a horizontal dimension along the direction of the conveyor such that the horizontal dimension and the longitudinal dimension define a treatment area on the conveyor. The lamp is configured to deliver energy to the treatment area such that the delivered energy to the processing surface is substantially uniform over the treatment area.

A light fixture for waveguided ambient light is described herein. In one embodiment, the light fixture includes an LED light source for emitting light rays, a waveguide optically coupled to the LED light source to receive and guide the emitted light rays from a proximal end of the waveguide to a distal end of the waveguide, a first indirect lighting surface configured to receive a first portion of the emitted light rays and reflect the first portion at a first distribution to produce a first ambient light source, and a second indirect lighting surface configured to receive a second portion of the emitted light rays and reflect the second portion at a second distribution to produce a second ambient light source.

An example embodiment of a backlit lamp comprises a housing, a forward facing directional light source and a rear facing directional light source. The housing may comprise a bowl portion comprising a first joining end and a forward emitting end; and a neck portion comprising a second joining end. The bowl and neck portions are joined at the first and second joining ends. The forward facing directional light source is mounted within the housing and configured to emit light in the direction of the forward emitting end. The rear facing directional light source is mounted within the housing and configured to emit light in an opposite direction from the light emitted by the forward facing directional light source. In an example embodiment, the forward facing and rear facing directional light source comprise light emitting diodes (LEDs).

A lighting device disclosed in an embodiment of the invention includes a substrate; a light source including a plurality of light emitting devices disposed on the substrate; a resin layer disposed on the substrate; and a first diffusion layer disposed on the resin layer, wherein the resin layer includes a first resin portion disposed on the light source, and a second resin portion adjacent to the first resin portion and disposed on the substrate. The upper surface of the first resin portion has an inclination and is spaced apart from the first diffusion layer, the second resin portion includes a material different from that of the first resin portion, and the second resin portion based on the upper surface of the substrate. The height of the upper surface may be greater than the lowermost height of the upper surface of the first resin portion.

A luminaire with a removable rail is disclosed. The luminaire can be powered with power provided by a power over Ethernet (PoE) solution. The rail can include a sensor that can provide feedback to the luminaire. The sensor can detect ambient information. A controller can modify output of the luminaire based on sensed information.

A luminous film has a plurality of light-emitting diodes, a carrier layer and a light-conducting layer having microoptical structures which make it possible to deflect multi-directionally emitted light in a common emission direction of the luminous film, in order to allow uniform illumination of the luminous film surface with a low light-emitting diode population of the luminous film.

A luminaire comprises a first light exit opening for emitting light from at least two light sources. A diffusely-reflecting first reflector portion is arranged on an inner side of a luminaire body. A first light source is arranged in an edge portion of the luminaire body surrounding the first light exit opening. First light beams of the first light source are deflected towards the first reflector portion by a second reflector portion, so that said beams exit through the first light exit opening as a diffusely-reflected first light beam bundle. A second light source generates a second light beam bundle. The first light beams exit the luminaire body exclusively as first light beams reflected at the first reflector portion. A second light exit opening is surrounded by the first reflector portion. A second aperture angle of the second light beam bundle is smaller than the first aperture angle.
