The invention relates to a lighting device for at least one plant, comprising an artificial lighting unit for providing artificial light for lighting the plant; a sunlight unit for providing sunlight for lighting the plant; a mixing unit for generating a mixed light consisting of the artificial light and the sunlight; a distributing unit for distributing the mixed light and lighting the plant with the distributed mixed light; and an adjustment unit for adjusting a property of the mixed light. The invention provides a lighting device for at least one plant, i.e., one or more plants, wherein the device can be used in an energy-saving manner for indoor farming.

Lighting device and lighting method for at least one plant

A multi-aperture imaging device includes an image sensor, an array of optical channels, each optical channel including an optic for imaging a partial field of view of a total field of view onto an image sensor region of the image sensor, and a beam-deflector switchable between a first rotational position and a second rotational position by executing a switching movement, and configured to deflect, in a first rotational position, optical paths of the optical channels into a first viewing direction, and to deflect, in a second rotational position, the optical paths of the optical channels into a second viewing direction. The array is configured to execute, based on the switching movement, an adjustment movement for adjusting an orientation of the array with respect to the beam-deflector.

A device for varyingly irradiating by means of ray shaping is described. Furthermore, a method of manufacturing a structure made of a curable material by means of molding is described. In a first step of the method, a molding tool is arranged above a surface such that the curable material abuts on the surface and a molding surface, facing the surface, of the molding tool in a region between the molding tool and the surface and such that further curable material may continue to flow to the region. In a second step, the curable material is irradiated in the region in a locally varying manner such that the ray experiences ray shaping in an optical channel and such that the curable material cures at different speeds in a laterally varying manner.
