Spectral Power Distribution Fusion Lighting Apparatus
20230057171 · 2023-02-23 ·

A spectral power distribution (SPD) fusion lighting apparatus includes a first visible light source with a first SPD, a second visible light source with a second SPD, a driver circuit, and a controller. The first SPD is different than the second SPD markedly in a 50 nm wavelength range. The controller toggles the turning on of the first visible light and the second visible light at a frequency greater than 25 Hz. The first visible light source is turned on during one half of the duty cycle, whereas the second visible light source is turned on during the other half of the duty cycle. The first visible light source and the second visible light emit similar light outputs and have similar chromaticity coordinates on the CIE 1931 color space chromaticity diagram. In some embodiments a sound wave generator is used to generate a sound wave at the same frequency.

Systems, methods and articles for enhancing wellness associated with habitable environments

Environmental characteristics of habitable environments (e.g., hotel or motel rooms, spas, resorts, cruise boat cabins, offices, hospitals and/or homes, apartments or residences) are controlled to eliminate, reduce or ameliorate adverse or harmful aspects and introduce, increase or enhance beneficial aspects in order to improve a “wellness” or sense of “wellbeing” provided via the environments. Control of intensity and wavelength distribution of passive and active Illumination addresses various issues, symptoms or syndromes, for instance to maintain a circadian rhythm or cycle, adjust for “jet lag” or season affective disorder, etc. Air quality and attributes are controlled. Scent(s) may be dispersed. Hypoallergenic items (e.g., bedding, linens) may be used. Water quality is controlled. Noise is reduced and sounds (e.g., masking, music, natural) may be provided. Passive and active pathogen controls are employed. Controls are provided for the occupant and/or facility personnel, as is instruction, and surveys, including assessing wellness.

11585493 · 2023-02-21 ·

A subject of the invention is the source of LED lighting that improves human cognitive performance during work activities or in any activity and simulates sun radiation in the biologically beneficial range 460 to 660 nm, for more than 90%. The whole system of the LED lighting source is set in such a way that 4.5 to 6% of blue and turquoise light radiation is added to the light radiation emitted from white LED chips, and it is advantageous if of equal radiation intensity. This measurement will provide for balancing of radiation intensity to 90% of the sunshine level. The generated combined light radiation of the cognitive LED lighting source has CRI 98 and correlated colour temperature 4000 to 4700 K, the sun radiation has correlated colour temperature 4982 K and CRI 99.5.

Systems and methods for displaying images to patient residing on movable table during medical imaging or therapeutic procedures

Systems and methods are provided for delivering images to a patient before and/or during a medical procedure in which a patient is translated on a table relative to a gantry. In various example embodiments, images are projected to the patient while preserving the projected field size during table motion, thereby potentially reducing patient anxiety by providing a more immersive patient viewing experience. In some example embodiments, the projected field size is maintained by a display system that is secured to the table such that both a projector and a projection screen are fixed relative to the table, and relative to the patient, during translation of the table. In some example embodiments, a reduction in patient anxiety may be achieved by projecting images as virtual images that are perceived by the patient as residing at a depth that lies beyond the confined spatial region in which the patient resides.
