Various implementations disclosed herein includes a method for operating lighting fixtures in horticultural applications. The method may include receiving a user input of a desired irradiance for a first color channel of one or more lighting fixtures that irradiates a plant bed, in which each of the one or more lighting fixtures comprises at least one light emitting diode (LED) array, determining, for each of the one or more lighting fixtures, a PWM setting of the first color channel such that each of the one or more lighting fixtures irradiate the plant bed at the desired irradiance based on calibration data stored in each of the one or more lighting fixtures, and applying, to each of the one or more lighting fixtures, the determined PWM setting of the first color channel.

Irradiance-controlled fixture for horticultural applications

A method of setting luminance levels of a solid-state light sources of a luminaire with programmable light distribution is provided. The method includes obtaining a file describing a desired light beam distribution, converting the desired light beam distribution into luminance levels for the solid-state light sources, and applying the luminance levels to the solid-state light sources to cause the luminaire to output the desired light beam distribution.

Luminaire with programmable light distribution

Lighting systems and associated controls that can provide active control of lighting device settings, such as on/off, color, intensity, focal length, beam location, beam size and beam shape. In some examples, lighting systems may include eye tracking technology and sensor feedback for one or more lighting device settings and may be configured with depth perception and cavity or incision recognition capability through image or video processing.

Lighting devices with automatic lighting adjustment

A connected lighting fixture network system has a plurality of multi-channel lighting fixtures. Each lighting fixture (device) has a plurality of services that reside within an application layer of the device. A controller is coupled to the device and configured to send query and command message to the device and to receive reply messages from the device. One service available to the device is a lighting command and control service. The device is configured to receive a query message from the controller. The controller is configured to generate a lighting control and command message, which can include a channel illumination field (CIF) and an illumination payload. The CIF indicates the channels of the device to be commanded based on the status of the channels received in the first reply message. The illumination payload indicates the intended illumination level for the corresponding channel.

Lighting command and control using message-based communications for multi-channel lighting fixtures

A connected lighting fixture network system has a plurality of multi-channel lighting fixtures that communicate over a network. Each lighting fixture (device) may access a plurality of services that reside within an application layer of the device, or on a server accessible to the device. A controller is coupled to the device and configured to send query and command messages to the device and to receive reply messages from the device. A query message from the controller can request information about the device. In response to receiving the reply message, the controller can generate a command message and send the command message to the device. The services available to the device may include network discovery, device health, device status, software versioning, and lighting command and control.

Connected lighting network architecture

Techniques and architecture are disclosed for gesture-based control techniques for lighting systems. In some cases, the lighting system may include a camera and/or other suitable componentry to interpret gestures made by a user for controlling light output. In some such cases, the gesture performed and/or the location of the gesture may determine how the light output is controlled. In some cases, the gestures may be performed by moving a mobile computing device, such as a smartphone, tablet, or dedicated light controller device. In some such cases, sensors included in or otherwise operatively coupled to the computing device (gravitational sensors, accelerometers, gyroscopic sensors, etc.) may be used to detect the movement of the device and the related gestures. The gestures may be used to navigate a user interface that allows a user to control light output by adjusting different attributes of the light output, such as light intensity and color.
