| Title: |
Geometric Panel Lighting Apparatus and Methods |
| Abstract: |
Methods and apparatus for generating at least one variable color lighting
effect over at least a two-dimensional observation area. In various
examples, at least first radiation having a first spectrum and second
radiation having a second spectrum different than the first spectrum are
generated from a plurality of LEDs. One or more geometric panels are
disposed with respect to the LEDs so as to at least partially diffuse the
first radiation and the second radiation to provide a mixed spectrum when
both the first radiation and the second radiation are generated. A first
intensity of the first radiation and a second intensity of the second
radiation are independently controlled at a plurality of graduated
intensities from a minimum intensity to a maximum intensity so as to
generate a variety of dynamic lighting effects over one or more
two-dimensional observations areas covered by the one or more geometric
panels.
