| Title: |
Range Sensing and Safety System for a Luminaire |
| Abstract: |
An automated luminaire and method are provided. The automated luminaire includes a range sensing module and a control system. The range sensing module calculates a distance to a closest object in a direction that the automated luminaire is pointed. The control system reduces a beam power density of a light beam emitted from the automated luminaire when the distance is less than a threshold distance. The method includes determining whether an emitted beam power determinant of the automated luminaire has changed; if so, calculating a threshold distance from current values of one or more beam power determinants; determining whether the distance to the closest object is greater than the threshold distance; and, if not, reducing the beam power density of the light beam emitted from the automated luminaire. |
