An area optical cover for a linear light source extends along an axial direction. The optical cover includes a portion of an optical material that forms a constant cross-section transverse to the axial direction. An outer surface of the cross-section is substantially planar, and an inner surface of the cross-section forms a plurality of facets. Each of the facets forms a refractive surface that is configured to refract a corresponding portion of light from the light source, and a return surface that connects the refractive surface with a refractive surface of an adjacent facet. When the outer surface is oriented horizontally on a lower side of the portion of the optical material, and the linear light source is positioned at an installation height above the inner surface, all facets within at least 30 degrees of nadir from the light source are optimized to provide a selected light distribution.

Silicone-containing light fixture optics. A method for manufacturing an optical component may include mixing two precursors of silicone, opening a first gate of an optic forming device, moving the silicone mixture from the extrusion machine into the optic forming device, cooling the silicone mixture as it enters the optic forming device, filling a mold within the optic forming device with the silicone mixture, closing the first gate, and heating the silicone mixture in the mold to at least partially cure the silicone. Alternatively, a method for manufacturing an optical component may include depositing a layer of heat cured silicone optical material to an optical structure, arranging one or more at least partially cured silicone optics on the layer of heat cured silicone optical material, and heating the heat cured silicone optical material to permanently adhere the one or more at least partially cured silicone optics to the optical structure.

An optical assembly and a luminaire with extreme cutoff beam control optics. The optical assembly includes a base, at least one lens, at least one light emitting diode (LED) positioned to emit light into the lens, and a curved reflector disposed adjacent to the LED. The reflector can be characterized by a first angle between a plane of the base and a first line joining a distal end of the lens furthest laterally from a first end of the reflector and a second end of the reflector located over the lens, and a second angle between the plane of the base and a second line joining a point on the lens located at the optical axis of the LED and the second end of the reflector. The first angle can be between 60° and 90°, and the second angle can be between 70° and 130°.

Extreme cutoff beam control optics

An optic having a first optic portion located on a first side of the optic and a second optic portion formed integrally with the first optic portion and located on a second side of the optic. A first cavity is defined by a first cavity inner surface in the first optic portion, the first optic portion being configured to refract light rays emitted by at least one light source. The second optic portion includes at least one total internal reflection surface and a second cavity defined at least partially by a second cavity rear surface that extends at an angle between 20° and 60°, inclusive, relative to an axis defining the height the of the optic. The second cavity rear surface is configured to refract other light rays toward the at least one total internal reflection surface, and the at least one internal reflection surface is configured to reflect the light rays toward the first side of the optic.

An optical assembly and a luminaire with extreme cutoff beam control optics. The optical assembly includes a base, a plurality of lenses, a plurality of light emitting diodes (LED) positioned to emit light into the lenses, and a reflector having a reflective surface disposed adjacent at least one of the plurality of LEDs. The optical axis of one or more of the LEDs may be offset from a central axis of the respective lens in which it emits light. The reflective surface of the reflector may extend from the base over the one or more of the LEDs and beyond the optical axis of the one or more LEDs to direct light in a desired direction or toward a selected area (e.g., a street) and cut off light directed in an undesirable direction or area (e.g., a house).

Disclosed herein is an optical assembly and a luminaire with extreme cutoff beam control optics. The optical assembly includes a base, a plurality of lenses disposed on the base and spaced from each other, a plurality of light emitting diodes (LED), and a reflector having a curved surface (e.g., concave shape, parabolic shape, etc.) disposed adjacent to at least one of the plurality of LEDs. A central axis of an LED may be offset from a central axis of the respective lens of the plurality of lenses. The curved surface may extend from the base and curving over the at least one of the plurality of LEDs and beyond the central axis of each of the at least one of the plurality of LEDs and direct light in a desired direction or a selected area (e.g., a street side) and cut off light in other direction (e.g., a house side).

A data structure is dynamically displayed within a graphical user interface with an initial setting information. User input that provides instructions to adjust the setting information is received. The received user input is parsed to identify a position portion, a motion portion, and a magnitude portion. The setting information is adjusted based on the received user input. The data structure is dynamically displayed according to the adjusted setting information.

Displaying a hierarchical data structure within a graphical user interface

A system includes a plurality of graph convolutional networks corresponding to a plurality of time steps, each network modelling a graph including nodes and edges, and in turn including a plurality of graph convolution units; an evolving mechanism; and an output layer. Each of the units, for a given one of the time steps, takes as input a graph adjacency matrix, a node feature matrix, and a parameter matrix for a current layer, and outputs a new node feature matrix for a next highest layer. The mechanism takes as input a parameter matrix for a prior time step updates the input parameter matrix, and outputs the parameter matrix for the given time step. The output layer obtains, as input, output of each of the units for a final time step, and based on the output of each of the units for the final time step, outputs a graph solution.

Evolving graph convolutional networks for dynamic graphs

An optic for aisle lighting includes a portion of an optical material defined by a length and a cross-sectional profile. The cross-sectional profile is characterized by a cavity within the optical material, two upwardly-facing surfaces of the optical material on opposite sides of the cavity from one another, and downwardly-facing surfaces of the optical material. The cavity is bounded by an upward facing aperture, and at least three faces of the optical material that meet at interior angles. Light received through the upward facing aperture is separated at the interior angles, and refracted by the faces of the optical material, into separate light beams equal in number to the faces. The two upwardly-facing surfaces internally reflect the separate light beams downwardly. The downwardly-facing surfaces intercept respective portions of the separate light beams, and refract the portions as they exit the optic.
