Abstract

The use of one or more angled or curved and diverging light pipes or reflectors placed in a light source's, e.g. diode's, emission path at appropriate distances, angles and divergence, such that a diode's emission spot size is modified and or redirected from the diode's natural emission path to alternative planes at angle to the diode's natural emission path so that a diode emission safe spot size can be achieved on any plane at angle to the original diode natural emission path at minimum distances from the diode's point of emission.
