A luminous means comprising a substrate having a first main surface, to which a first electrode is applied, a second electrode, an organic layer stack within an active region of the substrate between the first and the second electrode, wherein the organic layer stack comprises at least one organic layer which is suitable for generating light, and at least one reflective element, which is formed along a main plane of the luminous means, wherein the luminous means has two operating states, such that the luminous means is an illumination source in a first operating state and the luminous means is a mirror in a second operating state.

Organic lighting device and lighting equipment

A glazing comprising a luminous means with a substrate having a first main surface, to which a first electrode is applied, a second electrode, and an organic layer stack within an active region of the substrate between the first and the second electrode, wherein the organic layer stack comprises at least one organic layer which is suitable for generating light, wherein the luminous means is arranged between two glass plates of the glazing of a window. Also, storage furniture is disclosed comprising a storage element shaped in planar fashion and having at least one storage surface and at least one radiation-emitting component, and at least one holding apparatus for holding the storage element.

An organic luminous means and an illumination device comprising such a luminous means are specified. An optical display apparatus, emergency lighting, motor vehicle interior lighting, an item of furniture, a construction material, a glazing and a display comprising such a luminous means and, respectively, comprising an illumination device having such a luminous means are furthermore specified.

A system for controlling a light source to enhance the appearance of one or more objects within an environment illuminated by the light source. The system includes a tunable white light source to illuminate an object and a camera configured to capture one or more digital images the object and identify attributes of the object, including object color values. The system further includes a light control module configured to determine at least one optimal lighting condition for the light source based, at least in part, on the object attributes, wherein the optimal lighting condition is configured to enhance the appearance of the object illuminated by the light source while maintaining the overall appearance of light within the environment. The light control module is further configured to adjust the spectral composition of the light source based on the optimal lighting condition.

System and method for controlling lighting

A light source that generally includes multiple light emitting diode (LED) sources emitting light at different colors. A controller energizes the LED sources for establishing a changing pattern of the light colors to provide a decorative effect while simultaneously establishing white light illumination of a target area.

LED-based light source having decorative and illumination functions

An organic luminous means and an illumination device comprising such a luminous means are described. An optical display apparatus, emergency lighting, motor vehicle interior lighting, an item of furniture, a construction material, a glazing and a display comprising such a luminous means and, respectively, comprising an illumination device having such a luminous means are also described.

A method and system for controlling lighting in a space reduces energy consumption of the light sources by changing at least one of the color rendering index (CRI) and the correlated color temperature (CCT) while maintaining illumination levels. Preferably, the method and system sense movement of people in the space relative to light sources that light the space, and automatically and individually adjust plural solid state lighting devices that form each of the respective light sources to a first lighting condition when people are in a first position, wherein the lamps respectively emit light of a first illumination level and a first CRI at a first electrical power level, and to a second lighting condition when people are in a second position, wherein the light sources respectively emit light of the first illumination level and a smaller CRI than the first CRI and at a lower electrical power level than the first electrical power level.

Scent dispensing ring for an incandescent bulb

A scent-bearing ring adaptable for at least semi-permanent engagement with the neck of an incandescent bulb that generates both light and heat. The ring comprises an annular body having an inner layer formed to engage the bulb neck and an outer layer containing a scent or vapor-releasing agent actuable by heat. The inner layer is formed from a moldable material at least capable of resisting without substantial damage the heat generated by the bulb when the bulb is operated in a base-down position and capable of transferring the heat to the outer layer, the outer layer being moldable and porous.

A method of preparing an electrically insulating polymer substrate, particularly those containing an aromatic group, for the reception of an electrically conductive pattern, said substrate having a glass transition temperature or a softening temperature, comprises the steps of: performing a first cleaning of the substrate; heating the substrate in a nitrogen atmosphere for about 3 hours at a temperature of about 20.degree. C. below the glass transition temperature or the softening temperature of the substrate; cooling the substrate to room temperature; roughening the surface of the substrate by, for example, etching said substrate in a chromic acid-containing solution for about 3 minutes at a temperature of between 65.degree. C. and 70.degree. C.; and performing a second cleaning and drying of the substrate.
