Embodiments of the present invention are related to a lighting system comprising a control unit that manages a lighting device with an LED board within an optical chamber. The LED board includes a first string of LEDs and a second string of LEDs. The control unit and the LED board are configured to electrically couple to first and second wires. The first string of LEDs and the second string of LEDs are configured to emit light having different spectral power distributions within the visible spectrum. The first string of LEDs is oriented in an electrically opposite direction than the second string of LEDs. The control unit comprises a switch configured to direct current between the first wire and second wire. The wire to which current is directed is designated active. The designated active wire activates one of the first string of LEDs and second string of LEDs.

Systems and methods for optimizing power and control of a multicolored lighting system

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.

Occupancy sensor and associated methods

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.

Intelligent security light and associated methods

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.
