A light system for a barrier operator includes a plurality of barrier operators each in communication with a respective wall console. The light system further includes a plurality of light kits, each light kit of the plurality of light kits being in communication with at least one barrier operator of the plurality of barrier operators. Each barrier operator of the plurality of barrier operators is configured to select one of the light kits of the plurality of light kits as a master light kit, receive a state information from the master light kit, and transmit the state information of the master light kit to other light kits of the plurality of light kits. As such the lights connected to a barrier operator may become synchronized.

Method and apparatus for operating home appliances, the method includes identifying a home appliance in a field view of a camera of an augmented reality (AR) device; generating, based on the home appliance that was identified, a control interface to overlay on a screen of the AR device or to present within an augmented view of a user that carries the AR device; detecting a selection by the user of control options on the control interface; and triggering the home appliance to perform an operation based on the selection.

Computer implemented systems and methods for providing dynamic lighting through lighting fixtures are provided herein. In one aspect, one or more characteristics of light provided from a lighting fixture or a plurality of lighting fixtures changes over time to shape the environment of an indoor space according to simulated environment illumination parameters and general illumination parameters. Dynamic lighting may improve the health or wellbeing of individuals in an indoor space, for example, by simulating an outdoor environment to reduce stress, by providing circadian entrainment to improve sleep and wakefulness, or the like. Other aspects of the present disclosure enable lighting fixtures to provide light that is synchronized with one or more other devices that simulate an environment and shape the environment of an indoor space.

The invention relates to an LED-driver, comprising an actively switched PFC circuitry and a bus interface for a wire-bound bus, wherein a voltage supply for the bus interface for powering the bus is tapped off the output voltage of the active PFC circuitry, further comprising a control circuitry for a feedback control of an output voltage of the actively switched PFC by controlling a switch of the PFC, wherein the time constant of the feedback control of the control circuitry is faster during time periods in which the bus interface is transmitting or receiving signals, compared to time periods without activity.

Disclosed is an enhanced infinity mirror with an application interface for controlling and/or changing the illumination, reflection, and/or other effects produced by the enhanced infinity mirror. The enhanced infinity mirror may include a first reflective surface, a second reflective surface positioned relative to the first reflective surface, and light sources that generate an infinity effect based on reflections off the first reflective surface and the second reflective surface. The application interface may receive a pattern, and may control illumination of different sets of the light sources at different times according to the pattern by illuminating a first set of the light sources with first colors for a first duration as defined in a first step of the pattern, and a second set of the light sources with second colors for a second duration as defined in a second step of the pattern.

Methods and systems are provided to allow for merchant or third party controlled adjustment of a physical environment around a user. Such adjustments may be in response to user actions and may create a more immersive experience for the user. Such adjustments may be determined from interaction data received from a user device, with may identify a service provider, a product, or an activity that the user is currently engaging in or is interested in. One or more secondary devices may be identified to be within an area around the user device and one or more environmental rules associated with the service provider, product, or activity may be determined and communicated to the one or more secondary devices to cause the one or more secondary devices to adjust a physical environment of the area proximate the user device.
