Furthermore, a process for the production of the optoelectronic module (100) is defined.

A method and circuit to use light-emitting diodes to emulate the dimming performance of incandescent lighting, and more particularly, to making a circuit that uses only white and deep red light-emitting diodes to achieve a coordinated-color-temperature as a function of dim level that is close to that of an incandescent light being similarly dimmed.

A lighting system and method for generating an output light beam representative of a target natural light are provided. The lighting system includes a plurality of solid-state light emitters each emitting a light sub-beam having an individual spectrum. The individual spectra of the solid-state light emitters collectively cover a visible portion of the natural light spectral profile and exclude infrared and ultraviolet components. The lighting system further includes a combining assembly combining the light sub-beams into the output light beam. A control module controls an intensity of the light sub-beam from each of the solid-state light emitters such that the resulting combined spectral profile of the output light beam is representative of a natural light spectral profile of the target natural light over its visible portion.

According to one embodiment, an illumination system includes a plurality of white light sources that satisfies −0.2≦[(P(λ)×V(λ))/(P(λmax1)×V(λmax1))−(B(λ)×V(λ))/(B(λmax2)×V(λmax2))]≦+0.2 where P(λ) is an emission spectrum of a white light source having a specific color temperature, B(λ) is an emission spectrum of black body radiation having a corresponding color temperature, V(λ) is a spectrum of spectral luminous efficiency, λmax1 is a wavelength at which P(λ)×V(λ) becomes maximum, and λmax2 is a wavelength at which B(λ)×V(λ) becomes maximum. The respective white light sources have different color temperatures, and light from the respective white light sources is irradiated from different directions to a target.

In a positioning system, a mobile device can detect a transmission from one of a number of lighting devices to obtain an identification (ID) label or code of each lighting device. The mobile device uses the detected ID code for a lookup in a self-stored or remotely stored table that associates lighting device location information with ID codes, to obtain an estimate of mobile device position. To mitigate against hacking by a third party detecting the ID codes and observing locations to compile its own lookup table, the disclosed examples dynamically alter the assignments of particular ID codes to the lighting devices, while minimizing potential disruption of position determination service for mobile devices due to the changes to ID code assignments.

Solid state light fixtures include a plurality of blue-shifted-yellow/green light emitting diode (“LED”) packages and a plurality of blue-shifted-red LED packages, where the solid state light fixture emits light having a correlated color temperature of between 1800 K and 5500 K, a CRI value of between 80 and 99, a CRI R9 value of between 15 and 75, and a Qg value of between 90 and 110 when the blue-shifted-yellow/green LED packages and the blue-shifted-red LED packages are operating at steady-state operating temperatures of at least 80° C.

The present disclosure relates to an LED driving technology. According to the present disclosure, it is possible to increase the fineness of the gray scale without increasing a frequency of a clock by combining a plurality of driving current sources to generate a driving current supplied to one driving line.

Plants are optimally grown under artificial narrowband Photosynthetically Active Radiation (“PAR”) of multiple colors, and color palettes, applied in but partially time-overlapping cycles. As well as a long, growing season, cycle, the colored lights are cyclically applied on a short, diurnal, cycle that often roughly simulates a peak-season sunny day at the earth latitude native to the plant. Bluer lights are applied commencing before redder lights, and are likewise terminated before the redder lights. Infrared light in particular, is preferably first applied at a time corresponding to early afternoon, and is temporally extended past a time corresponding to sunset. The colored lights and light palettes preferably rise to, and fall from, different peak intensities over periods from 10 minutes to 2 hours, and relative peak intensities of even such different colors as are used at all vary up to times two (×2) in response to differing PAR requirements of different plants. Computer-controlled colored LED lights realize all.
