Patent Number: 12480651 
Title: System and Method for Controlling the Humidity and Pressure in a Luminaire 
Abstract: A luminaire is provided, having an enclosure and a chamber air coupled to the enclosure. The enclosure includes luminaire components that emit a light beam, has an opening, and is otherwise sealed. The chamber includes a drying agent, two openings, and is otherwise sealed from the external air. One opening of the chamber is coupled by a sealed air coupling to the opening of the enclosure. The other opening of the chamber is completely covered by a membrane that allows air to pass through the material while reducing the passage of water droplets in the air. The enclosure may include sensors that measure air pressure, air humidity, and/or air temperature of the enclosure. The luminaire may include a control system configured to collect data from the sensors and to send information related to the collected data to a user of the luminaire via a communication channel.
