Adjustable work lighting systems using liquid crystals

Abstract

A computer-implemented method comprises receiving, using a user interface element connected to an adjustable work light module, a user input representing a selected illumination beam pattern for light emitted by the adjustable work light module. The method also comprises determining a control voltage based on the user input. Subsequently, the method comprises controlling an adjustable voltage source connected to the adjustable work light module to provide the determined control voltage to a configurable liquid crystal element of the adjustable work light module, in order to configure the adjustable work light module to emit light with the selected illumination beam pattern.
