A performance room includes: a luminous device for stimulating dinoflagellates and generating a luminous effect; an audio equipment for providing a piece of music, wherein the music is integrated with the luminous effect of the dinoflagellates, and the sequential tonalities and rhythms of the music are related to the switching of switching elements of the luminous device; and a field which can define a performance space, wherein the luminous effect of the dinoflagellates and the music are located in the field of the performance space. In particularly, the luminous effect is exhibited by integrating the musical melody with the dinoflagellates itself acted as a performer.

An aquaculture luminaire (10, 12) generates below the water surface upward light (26) and downward light (24). The upward light (26) is all directed with an angle to the vertical greater than a threshold angle. The division of light between the upward and downward directions may be configurable. Alternatively or additionally, the threshold angle may be configurable so that it ensures the light exceeds the angle for total internal reflection at the water surface. In this way, the luminaire is adaptable to the intended installation position of the luminaire and/or the prevailing water surface conditions (e.g. waves).

A method of experimenting on aquatic life in an indoor facility and lighting assembly for accomplishing the same. The lighting assembly includes a lighting device that emits light at a predetermined wavelength that provides a minimum water penetration depth and is positioned in a manner to provide uniform lighting at the air and water interface within a containment unit housing the aquatic life. The on and off function are also controlled by the lighting assembly to provide a gradual turn on and off to prevent interference of effects of lighting with experimental results.

The present invention is for illuminated containers and illuminated container systems comprising one or more light emitting sources which may be incorporated into the base in combination with a container to be illuminated (such as a terrarium). In one embodiment, one or more light emitting sources may be incorporated into a base such that light from the light emitting sources projects into a container where fiber optic cables may be embedded to receive the light such that the light can be carried and emitted at various locations throughout the container even though there is no light source in the container itself. Multiple fiber optic bundles may be used depending on the size of the glass container and the desired installation. Various indexing means may be utilized to insure alignment between the light emitting sources and the light receiving articles.

Various examples of methods and systems are provided for increasing productivity of one or more photosynthetic cultures via self-powered light systems. In one example, a system includes a waterproof casing and a light module enclosed within the waterproof casing. The waterproof casing is configured to be neutrally buoyant in a culture tank comprising the one or more photosynthetic cultures. In another example, a method includes placing a self-powered light system within a culture tank, the self-powered light system being neutrally buoyant within the culture tank. The method further includes causing turbulence of water within the culture tank, and the self-powered light system harvests energy to power a light of the self-powered light system via the turbulence of the water within the culture tank.

An automated terrarium feeder assembly includes a cover that is longitudinally elongated thereby facilitating the cover to be positioned on top of a terrarium to inhibit a reptile contained in the terrarium from escaping. A feeder is movably integrated into the cover to release a pre-determined amount of the reptile food into the terrarium to feed the reptile while an owner of the reptile is not present for extended periods of time. A heat lamp is integrated into the cover to warm the reptile. A light emitter is integrated into the cover to illuminate the terrarium. A touch screen is attached to the cover and the touch screen is in communication with the feeder for programming operational parameters of the feeder, the heat lamp, the light emitter and the blower.

A lighting unit for illuminating a habitat is provided. The lighting unit includes a housing and a light emitter. The operating parameters of the lighting unit may be adjusted to mimic different natural conditions.

A light member includes a housing having a top side and a bottom side. The top side faces away from a space to be lit, and the bottom side faces the space to be lit. A lighting control region is disposed on the bottom side of the housing that illuminates the space and has a first control channel, a second control channel, and a neutral channel. A first light-emitting module is electrically connected to the first control channel and the neutral channel and a second light-emitting module is electrically connected to the second control channel and the neutral channel. A switch assembly is coupled to the housing and is operable to selectively deliver power to the first control channel and the second control channel.

The invention discloses a circular aquarium lamp that comprises of a lamp body and a lamp bracket, wherein the bracket is connected with the body through a universal ball head. The body includes an upper and lower shell, an LED lamp panel and a heat-dissipating aluminum. The upper and lower shells are connected by a screw. The LED lamp panel and heat-dissipating aluminum are installed separately in a cavity that is formed between the upper and lower shell. The LED lamp panel is located under the heat-dissipating aluminum with a fan on top. A first rubber ring is set in between the LED lamp panel and a water-proof cover, whereas a second rubber ring is set in between the cover and a glass sheet. A control board is contained inside a circuit board shell which is installed in the lower shell. The radiator of this circular aquarium lamp has adopted a strong convective heat-dissipating design, thereby increasing greatly the cooling effects. Its fan will be turned on automatically when the temperature is relatively high, improving further the heat-dissipating performance. The lamp is of strong practicability and easy to popularize and use.

A lighting device includes a lighting module, a storage module storing light data sets corresponding respectively to successive time points of a cycling period, and a processing unit. In a routine mode, the processing unit controls the lighting module to emit light and to successively change color of light at the successive time points of the cycling period. In an adjustment mode, the processing unit reads from the storage device one light data set corresponding to the time point indicated by a time signal from an input device, adjusts the light data set according to a color signal from the input device, and controls the lighting module to emit light based on the adjusted light data set.
