An optic configured to create an asymmetric pattern of illumination includes a cavity defined by a sidewall. The cavity is oriented to receive light emitted by a light source that is disposed adjacent a light source receiving end of the cavity. Further, the optic includes a totally internally reflective surface that extends circumferentially about the sidewall and is tapered, so as to reflect emitted light that passes through the sidewall of the cavity and into a body of the optic. The totally internally reflective surface can have a form that is different on opposing sides of the cavity. Furthermore, the optic includes a convex surface that is disposed at a light emitting end of the sidewall to condense, focus, or collimate emitted light from the light source.

Precision lighting design is a subcategory of lighting design which benefits from a concerted, synergistic effort to improve beam control; sports lighting is one such example. Beam control is improved when all light directing and redirecting devices are considered together, and insomuch that adverse lighting effects are best avoided when considering how all the lighting fixtures in an array interact with one another. To that end, envisioned is a multi-part visoring (i.e., light redirecting) and optic (i.e., light directing) system designed with consideration towards how a fixture lives in a mounted spacehow its photometric and physical presence affects other fixtures in or proximate said spacewhile demonstrating improved beam control over that which is available to general purpose (e.g., indoor residential) lighting.

Auditorium pathways, such as vertical and horizontal aisle ways, are illuminated by light fixtures located above the pathways, the light fixtures comprising a plurality of LEDs whose light is focused into a light beam of a width selected to illuminate the pathway. In one embodiment, the light beam is configured such that it may be disposed between a plurality of patrons and a stage or screen to illuminate a pathway while remaining invisible to the patrons.

Aspects are described for dual-distribution lighting devices. For example, a dual-distribution lighting device includes a forward-throw module with a first lighting element that can provide directional light, a wide-throw module with a second lighting element that can provide light with a wide distribution, an interface element that can to receive input, and a processing device. In response to the input being received via the interface element, the processing device deactivates one of the forward-throw and wide-throw modules and activates the other of the forward-throw and wide-throw modules, thereby causing the dual-distribution lighting device to switch between providing directional light and a wide distribution of light.

An object is to provide an LED floodlight that enables efficient use of a cooling means, e.g., a heat dissipation fan, and can pursue a reduction in size. Therefore, it is an LED floodlight wherein a panel-shaped floodlight portion formed as a floodlight surface is formed such that a plurality of LEDs is arranged on a front surface, a heatsink having a plurality of heat dissipation plates on a back surface of the panel-shaped floodlight portion, and a cooling fan configured to send air toward a central portion of the heatsink are arranged in this order, the LED floodlight is formed of an appropriate power supply circuit, wherein a plurality of heat dissipation plates of a heatsink is radially arranged from a central portion to a periphery, a central portion of a coupling surface between heat dissipation plates of the heatsink protrudes toward a cooling fan configured to send air and has a curved surface portion from a central portion to a periphery.

The present invention relates to an illumination device comprising a number of light sources generating light and a number of light collecting means adapted to collect the generated light and to convert the collected light into a number of light beams that propagate along an optical axis. The light sources are arranged in a first group and second group of light sources which are individually controllable. The light collecting means and light sources are displaceable in relation to each other between a first position where the light collecting means collect light from the first group of light sources and convert the collected light into a number of first light beams, and a second position where the light collecting means collect light from the second group of light sources and convert the collected light from the second group of light sources into number of second light beams.

A lighting fixture can include a housing and a plurality of modules positioned within the housing. The plurality of modules can be distributed along a front portion of the housing. Each module of the plurality of modules includes a plurality of light emitting diodes and is independently mountable in the housing such that a number of modules in the plurality of modules is selectable.
