Solution Overview

Problem

Existing stage light fixtures cannot freely adjust their color rendering index (CRI) while maintaining brightness, as they typically have fixed modes with high or low CRI, failing to balance both factors effectively.

Innovation Solution

Solution Approach 1:

The light source is segmented into multiple LED chip sets with different color rendering characteristics. Each LED chip set emits light with a specific spectral power distribution, and by independently controlling the intensity of each chip set, the system can adjust the overall spectral composition to achieve desired color rendering index while maintaining brightness through optimized combination of multiple light sources.

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes the spectral parameters of the light source by adjusting the relative spectral power distributions of different LED chip sets. By normalizing the spectral power distributions and calculating appropriate intensity control parameters, the system can dynamically adjust the color rendering index and brightness independently, resolving the traditional trade-off between these two parameters.

AI summary

A method for adjusting color rendering index of a light source and a stage light fixture are provided. The light source has a first LED chip set with a first color rendering index and a second LED chip set with a second color rendering index. The range of chromaticity differences of a target spectrum and color differences of 14 Munsell color samples of the target spectrum are defined according to a target spectral power distribution of a reference light source under a target color rending index and a target color temperature. The light intensity control parameter K1, K2 of the first LED chip set and the second LED chip set are adjusted, and a relative spectral power distribution of synthesized lighting of the controlled light source is calculated to search for values of K1 and K2 enabling the relative spectral power distribution to fall within the range.
