| 20090196044 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR BIDIRECTIONAL CONTROL OF THE COLOR AND DIFFUSION OF A LIGHT BEAM - A light fixture includes first and second flexible materials coupled to first and second scrolling mechanisms that move the material in first and second directions to position a selected portion of the first and second flexible materials in first and second parts of a light beam from the fixture. A device coupled to the first and second mechanisms may move the first and second mechanisms in third and fourth directions so that third and fourth parts of the light beam do not pass through the first and second flexible materials. The third and fourth directions are different than the first and second directions. Different areas of the first and second flexible materials may produce different colors. The light fixture may also include a third scrolling mechanism coupled to a flexible diffusion material, to diffuse at least a part of the light beam by a predetermined amount. | 08-06-2009 |
