Appl. No.:

13/464345

Inventors:

Eric Holland - Indian Harbour Beach FL, US
Julia Sharon Irvin - Melbourne FL, US
Eric Thosteson - Satellite Beach FL, US

John Beck - Satellite Beach FL, US

Assignee:

Lighting Science Group Corporation - Satellite Beach FL

International Classification:

H04N 7/18
H04N 13/02

US Classification:

348 46, 348143, 348E13074

Abstract:

A device to detect occupancy of an environment includes a sensor to capture video frames from a location in the environment. The device may compare rules with data using a rules engine. The microcontroller may include a processor and memory to produce results indicative of a condition of the environment. The device may also include an interface through which the data is accessible. The device may generate results respective to the location in the environment. The microcontroller may be in communication with a network. The video frames may be concatenated to create an overview to display the video frames substantially seamlessly respective to the location in which the sensor is positioned. The overview may be viewable using the interface and the results of the analysis performed by the rules engine may be accessible using the interface.

International Classification:

H04N 7/18

US Classification:

348143, 348E07085

Abstract:

A lighting device capable of detecting a condition in an environment includes a sensor to capture a video frame from a location in the environment. The lighting device may include a microcontroller, a processor and memory. The sensor may be electrically connected to the microcontroller, and the video frame may be transmitted to the microcontroller as data. The lighting device may also include a light source electrically connected to and controlled by the microcontroller and a rules engine stored in the memory. The processor may compare the data to rules contained in the rules engine to produce an output. The lighting device may further include an interface through which the output is accessible. After an analysis is conducted, an output may be generated responsive to detection of an anomaly.

International Classification:

H05B 37/02

US Classification:

315113

Abstract:

A luminaire may include a wall mount and a driver circuit housing connected to the wall mount. The luminaire may also include a camera housing connected to the driver circuit housing, a light source housing connected to the camera housing, and a light source array that includes a plurality of light sources carried by the light source housing. The luminaire may include a prism, a heat sink in thermal communication with the light source array, and a camera carried by the camera housing. The luminaire may also include a sensor and a driver circuit carried by the driver circuit housing. The camera and/or the sensor may be configured to detect the presence and vicinity of an object in the target area. The light sources may be configured to emit light to illuminate the vicinity of the object sensed in the target area.

H04N 7/18

US Classification:

348159, 3406911

Abstract:

A luminaire may include a wall mount, a driver circuit housing connected to the wall mount, a sensor housing connected to the driver circuit housing, a light source housing connected to the sensor housing, and a light source array carried by the light source housing. A controller may be positioned in electrical communication with an emergency alert system, a sensor carried by the sensor housing and the light source. The light source may be capable of emitting illuminating light, and the controller may be configured to receive an emergency alert from the emergency alert system. The controller may be configured to operate the light source to emit light within a wavelength range associated with a color responsive to the emergency alert and the color of the light emitted may be associated with a particular emergency.
