13 results about "Light characteristic" patented technology

A light characteristic is a graphic and text description of a navigational light sequence or colour displayed on a nautical chart or in a Light List with the chart symbol for a lighthouse, lightvessel, buoy or sea mark with a light on it. The graphic indicates how the real light may be identified when looking at its actual light output type or sequence. Different lights use different colours, frequencies and light patterns, so mariners can identify which light they are seeing.

Human-Centric Lighting Control

A light characteristic of one or more luminaires can be controlled by periodically obtaining a target correlated color temperature (CCT) for a given time of day at the luminaires' location and obtaining a type identifier for each luminaire. The identifier can include information such as model number, serial number, manufacturer, digital-communication data, RFID tag data, QR-code data or user input. A profile for each luminaire is selected from multiple stored profiles based on its type identifier and power-supply settings generated for the DC power supplies powering each luminaire's light emitters using the target CCT and corresponding profile information. The generated power-supply settings are then sent to the respective DC power supplies.
