A lens assembly and luminaire are provided. The luminaire includes a head comprising the lens assembly, where the lens assembly includes a lens holder, a Fresnel lens, and a homogenizing lens. The Fresnel lens is physically coupled to the lens holder and includes a smooth rear face and a front face comprising annular facets. The homogenizing lens is physically coupled to the lens holder and optically coupled to the Fresnel lens. The homogenizing lens includes a rear face comprising a homogenizing optical structure and the rear face of the homogenizing lens faces the front face of the Fresnel lens.

Lens for an ingress protected stage luminaire

A luminaire includes a light source emitting a first light beam with a first optical axis. An optical element of the light source alignment system receives the first light beam and emits a second light beam with a second optical axis. The second optical axis is substantially parallel to, but not coaxial with, the first optical axis. A continuously adjustable position of the optical element determines a position of the second optical axis. A method for aligning an optical axis of a light beam includes receiving a first light beam with a first optical axis; emitting a second light beam with a second optical axis that is substantially parallel to, but not coaxial with, the first optical axis; and aligning the second light beam with an optical element of an optical system by adjusting a continuously adjustable position of an optical element relative to the first optical axis.

Light source alignment system

A zoom optical system includes a light source and focus, zoom, and fixed lens groups. The light source illuminates an object in or adjacent to an object plane. The focus lens group has a first positive optical power and moves to focus an object. The focus lens group has four lenses of positive, positive, positive, and negative optical power. The zoom lens group has a negative optical power and moves relative to the object plane and the focus lens group to control a beam angle while the focus lens group remains fixed relative to the object plane. The zoom lens group comprises two negative power lenses. The fixed lens group has a second positive optical power, remains in a fixed position relative to the object plane, and projects an image of the object. The fixed lens group has three lenses, comprising negative, positive, and positive optical powers.

Optical system for an automated luminaire

An automated luminaire and method are provided. The automated luminaire includes a range sensing module and a control system. The range sensing module calculates a distance to a closest object in a direction that the automated luminaire is pointed. The control system reduces a beam power density of a light beam emitted from the automated luminaire when the distance is less than a threshold distance. The method includes determining whether an emitted beam power determinant of the automated luminaire has changed; if so, calculating a threshold distance from current values of one or more beam power determinants; determining whether the distance to the closest object is greater than the threshold distance; and, if not, reducing the beam power density of the light beam emitted from the automated luminaire.

Range sensing and safety system for a luminaire

An optical system includes a light source, a lens, and a light effect ring. The lens has first and second surfaces and receives a first light beam from the light source at the first surface and emits a second light beam from the second surface. The light effect ring includes a first plurality of light emitters emitting second light beams that obliquely illuminate the first surface of the lens and a second plurality of emitters that emit third light beams through the lens. The light effect ring may include a plurality of segments that move into and out of the first light beam, where each segment includes a first subset of the first plurality of light emitters and a second subset of the second plurality of emitters.

A luminaire and LED light engine are provided. The luminaire includes the LED light engine and an optical device. The LED light engine includes an LED array and a partial diffuser. The partial diffuser diffuses light that is emitted by LEDs of a selected first subset of LEDs in the LED array and leaves undiffused light that is emitted by LEDs of a second subset of LEDs in the LED array. At least some LEDs are selected for inclusion in the first subset as emitting light that produces poorly blended colors in a light beam emitted by the LED array. The optical device is configured to receive a light beam emitted from the LED light engine and emit a modified light beam.

A luminaire is provided that includes an LED light engine emitting a light engine light beam and one or more optical devices configured to receive the light engine light beam and form a luminaire light beam emitted by the luminaire. The LED light engine includes an array of LED emitters mounted on a substrate, an array of lenses optically coupled to the array of LED emitters, and a plurality of filter regions. The filter regions of the plurality of filter regions are optically coupled to and fixedly mounted relative to the array of LED emitters. Each filter region of the plurality of filter regions is aligned with an associated LED of the array of LED emitters and is configured to filter substantially only light emitted by the associated LED.

An optical system and luminaire are provided that include a light source and a beam adjuster optical element (BAOE). The light source emits a source light beam that is received by the BAOE, which emits an adjusted light beam. The BAOE includes an outer portion that receives an outer portion of the source light beam and causes light rays of the outer portion to diverge in a corresponding outer portion of the adjusted light beam and an inner portion that receives an inner portion of the source light beam and causes light rays of the inner portion to converge in a corresponding inner portion of the adjusted light beam. The luminaire includes an actuator that moves the BAOE within the luminaire and a control system that receives a control signal via a data link and moves the BAOE in response to the control signal.
