Abstract
A luminaire carried by a lighting fixture, having a generally concave-shaped housing defining an optical chamber and an aperture, and a plurality of lighting devices each having a heat sink, a light source, and a magnetic attachment member. Each lighting device may be positioned about the inner surface of the housing. The magnetic attachment member may magnetically bind a lighting device to pads proximate to ferromagnetic material in the housing. Light emitted by the light source may enter the optical chamber and pass through the aperture in a generally orthogonal direction in relation to the orientation of the device. Electrical power may be delivered by one or more power supply units of either an external or an on-board type, and by using either inductive or conductive coupling. Network interfaces may enable communication of control instructions among a multiple controllers located either within a single luminaire or distributed among multiple luminaires.
