Abstract

Devices and methods for uniform illumination of a target surface are disclosed. A device assembly has a light source configured to be coupled to a mounting surface, and at least one reflector. The reflector is configured to be coupled to at least one of the light source or the mounting surface, and interposed between the light source and the mounting surface, the reflector having a reflective surface area and a plurality of curved reflective segments. The reflector is shaped and arranged relative to the light source such that the reflector directly intercepts and reflects a portion of light emitted by the light source to the target surface to thereby cause substantially uniform illumination of the target surface. The target surface has a surface area that is greater than the reflective surface area of the at least one reflector.
