20080203945Describing Two Led Colors as a Single, Lumped Led Color - A light emitting diode (LED) lighting system for producing white light is disclosed. The system comprises sets of LEDs arranged to emit light with different wavelength ranges and associated with different sets of characteristics, and a driving circuit arranged to drive the LEDs. The driving circuit comprises an input for desired light intensity, color rendering index, and color temperature, an input for signals for LED temperature, a model for determining driving currents for said sets of LEDs from said parameters, signals, and characteristics for each of said sets of LEDs; and a current driver for the LEDs. At least one of the sets of LEDs comprises a first subset of LEDs with a first wavelength sub-range and a first set of characteristics, and a second subset of LEDs with a second wavelength sub-range and a second set of characteristics. A lumped wavelength range of the set of LEDs is a range of said first and second wavelength sub-ranges, and the set of characteristics of the set of LEDs is a function of said first and second sets of characteristics. A method for controlling the sets of LEDs is also disclosed.08-28-2008

20090212709LED Luminaire With Optical Feedback By Image Mapping On Segmented Light Sensors - The present invention relates to a luminaire comprising an array of LEDs emitting light of at least one colour, and a control system for controlling the light output of the luminaire. The control system comprises photosensor array for detecting light output of the luminaire. An imaging unit is arranged in front of the photosensor array such that it maps an image of said array of LEDs on said photosensor array. The photosensor array is divided into subareas each detecting light output from a single one of the LEDs. The control system uses the output of the subareas for controlling the luminaire light output. Thus, it is possible to act on different LED light colours or the light output of individual LEDs without having to separate them in time by means of a time pulsing method.08-27-2009
20090237003FEEDBACK CONTROLLED ILLUMINATION SYSTEM HAVING AN ARRAY OF LEDS, AND A DETECTOR AMONG THE LEDS - The present invention relates to an illumination system having an array of differently coloured LEDs, a plurality of collimators, wherein each collimator holds at least one LED, a light mixing element, arranged to mix light generated by the LEDs into a mixed light that is emitted from the illumination system, and a control system for controlling the colour balance of the mixed light. The control system comprises a detector, which is placed among said collimators and encircled by a light shield. The detector detects a fraction of the mixed light that is reflected at an exit window of the mixing element. In this structure the detected light twice passes the mixing element, which provides for a proper mixing of the different colours as well as a proper homogenisation of the light.09-24-2009
