The present invention is related to an apparatus and more particularly related to a lighting fixture.
For many years the lighting of interiors of vehicles, aircraft, buildings, and watercraft, and more recently the lighting of exteriors of vehicles have used the cold cathode lamp; more commonly known as the fluorescent lamp or a fluorescent system. The fluorescent lamp however has limitations on its capabilities and usages. The fluorescent lamp has disadvantages to the consumer. The disadvantages of the fluorescent lamp are the short life, easily broken, low durability, high costs of replacement, high costs of specialty lights, limited color selection, electromagnetic interference which may be harmful to other electronic equipment. The manufacturing of fluorescent lamps and debris from replaced lamps have a high environmental risk, as the chemicals inside of a fluorescent lamp are toxic. Also, the flicker effect of dying or improperly installed fluorescent lamps may be extremely harmful to individuals with certain medical conditions. The constant inconsistency of fluorescent lighting colors is often a complaint of consumers who have to replace lamps on a regular basis. A fluorescent system cannot be used effectively in extreme low or high ambient temperatures.
Lighting includes the use of both artificial light sources like lamps and light fixtures, as well as natural illumination by capturing daylight. Daylighting such as using windows, skylights, or light shelves, is sometimes used as the main source of light during daytime in buildings. This can save energy in place of using artificial lighting, which represents a major component of energy consumption in buildings. Proper lighting can enhance task performance, improve the appearance of an area, or have positive psychological effects on occupants. Indoor lighting is usually accomplished using light fixtures and is a key part of interior design. Lighting can also be an intrinsic component of landscape projects.
A light-emitting diode (LED) is a semiconductor light source that emits light when current flows through it. Electrons in the semiconductor recombine with electron holes, releasing energy in the form of photons. This effect is called electroluminescence. The color of the light (corresponding to the energy of the photons) is determined by the energy required for electrons to cross the band gap of the semiconductor. White light is obtained by using multiple semiconductors or a layer of light-emitting phosphor on the semiconductor device.
Appearing as practical electronic components in 1962, the earliest LEDs emitted low-intensity infrared light. Infrared LEDs are used in remote-control circuits, such as those used with a wide variety of consumer electronics. The first visible-light LEDs were of low intensity and limited to red. Modern LEDs are available across the visible, ultraviolet, and infrared wavelengths, with high light output.
Early LEDs were often used as indicator lamps, replacing small incandescent bulbs, and in seven-segment displays. Recent developments have produced white-light LEDs suitable for room lighting. LEDs have led to new displays and sensors, while their high switching rates are useful in advanced communications technology.
LEDs have many advantages over incandescent light sources, including lower energy consumption, longer lifetime, improved physical robustness, smaller size, and faster switching. Light-emitting diodes are used in applications as diverse as aviation lighting, automotive headlamps, advertising, general lighting, traffic signals, camera flashes, lighted wallpaper and medical devices.
Unlike a laser, the color of light emitted from an LED is neither coherent nor monochromatic, but the spectrum is narrow with respect to human vision, and functionally monochromatic.
The energy efficiency of electric lighting has increased radically since the first demonstration of arc lamps and the incandescent light bulb of the 19th century. Modern electric light sources come in a profusion of types and sizes adapted to many applications. Most modern electric lighting is powered by centrally generated electric power, but lighting may also be powered by mobile or standby electric generators or battery systems. Battery-powered light is often reserved for when and where stationary lights fail, often in the form of flashlights, electric lanterns, and in vehicles.
Although lighting devices are widely used, there are still lots of opportunity and benefit to improve the lighting devices to provide more convenient, low cost, reliable and beautiful lighting devices for enhancing human life.
