Abstract:
A high output light source, such as a stage lighting luminaire, produces light along a path. The belt which drives a driven device is kept away from that path by passing it around the opposite side of the pulley.
Abstract:
An electronic projection device stores a library of images used for gobos, or light shaping devices, to shape the light. Those gobos each have a specified size. A device adjusts the amount of ligth which passes based on the size information about a gobo. The size of the image is automatically determined, and maximize is used to adjust the amount of opening of a mechanical device, such as a motor driven iris. In this way, the motor driven iris can automatically open to a size that is based on the image information.
Abstract:
A system of digitally controlling light output by producing separate control signals for different colors of light. The light is contained in an optical waveguide, either prior to shaping or after shaping. Each of the control signals is coupled to a digitally controlled device which controls the shape of the light output. The digital controlling device can be digital mirror devices, for example.
Abstract:
A special record format used for commanding light pattern shapes and addressable light pattern shape generator. The command format includes a first part which commands a specified gobo and second parts which command the characteristics of that gobo. The gobo is formed by making a default gobo based on the type and modifying that default gobo to fit the characteristics.

Abstract:
A lighting system operating using a digital mirror as its operative device. The digital mirror is used to shape the light which is a passed through advanced optical devices in order to produce an output.
Abstract:
A system and method of cooling a bulb of a type that requires cooling in one part, but not in others. A deflector assembly is coupled through a reflector, to the bulb, to cool only one part.
