Electronic light emitting flares and related methods. Flares of the present invention include various features such as self-synchronization, remote control, motion-actuated or percussion-actuated features, dynamic shifting between side-emitting and top-emitting light emitters in response to changes in positional orientation (e.g., vertical vs. horizontal) of the flare; overrides to cause continued emission from side-emitting or top-emitting light emitters irrespective of changes in the flare's positional orientation; use of the flare(s) for illumination of traffic cones and other hazard marking or traffic safety objects or devices, group on/off features, frequency specificity to facilitate use of separate groups of flares in proximity to one another, selection and changing of flashing patterns and others.

A visible light sensor may be configured to sense environmental characteristics of a space using an image of the space. The visible light sensor may be controlled in one or more modes, including a daylight glare sensor mode, a daylighting sensor mode, a color sensor mode, and/or an occupancy/vacancy sensor mode. In the daylight glare sensor mode, the visible light sensor may be configured to decrease or eliminate glare within a space. In the daylighting sensor mode and the color sensor mode, the visible light sensor may be configured to provide a preferred amount of light and color temperature, respectively, within the space. In the occupancy/vacancy sensor mode, the visible light sensor may be configured to detect an occupancy/vacancy condition within the space and adjust one or more control devices according to the occupation or vacancy of the space. The visible light sensor may be configured to protect the privacy of users within the space via software, a removable module, and/or a special sensor.

A multicamera device includes: a first sensor to detect a first spectrum of external light; a second sensor to detect a second spectrum of the external light; and an optic overlapping with the first and second sensors. The optic includes: a substrate; a first reflective layer on the substrate; and an optical layer between the first sensor and the substrate, the optical layer to transmit the first spectrum of the external light to the first sensor, and reflect the second spectrum of the external light toward the first reflective layer, and the first reflective layer is to reflect the second spectrum of the external light in a direction toward the second sensor.

Disclosed is a power strip with a night light function. An LED light group is arranged based on a traditional power strip, powered by a power supply unit led out between a live wire and a neutral wire in a plug/socket, and controlled by a control unit for work. As arranged on the plug and/or socket, the LED light group can be controlled to be turned on when light is dark. The power strip is convenient to find, plug and use, and can serve as a night light for lighting at night. The control unit respectively has automatic, normally open and normally closed control modes which can be switched by a user toggling a mode switching switch as required. The design of the power strip facilitates use in dark environments and adds a new function, thereby having the advantages of simple structure, reasonable design, convenient use and diversified functions.

An arrangement for operating a diode array includes a plurality of LEDs. Each LED is assigned a respective sensor element which is configured to detect a characteristic value representative of a luminous flux of the respective LED. The arrangement also includes a respective supply input for providing a current for light-emitting operation of the respective LED. The arrangement further includes in each case a control unit which is coupled on the input side to the respective supply input and the respective sensor element and on the output side to the respective LED and is configured to control the current for light-emitting operation of the respective LED as a function of the corresponding characteristic value. The arrangement additionally includes a respective supply input for providing a current for light-emitting operation of the respective LED.
