Abstract
Provided are systems and methods for providing a stabilized color management system in a solid state lighting panel. Methods according to some embodiments include receiving, in the microcontroller, a color management reference value corresponding to a color characteristic of the solid state lighting panel and adjusting a control mode of the microcontroller responsive to the color management reference value.
Claims25
A method of controlling a solid state lighting panel utilizing a microcontroller, the method comprising:
- receiving, in the microcontroller, a color management reference value corresponding to a color characteristic of the solid state lighting panel;
- and
- adjusting a control mode of the microcontroller responsive to the color management reference value.
A lighting panel system, comprising:
- a lighting panel including a plurality of solid state lighting devices configured to be driven by a plurality of current drivers;
- and
- a multi-mode color management system that is configured to control the lighting panel via the plurality of current drivers and that is further configured to selectively operate in a closed loop control mode responsive to a dynamic input signal value.
A method of providing a stabilized color management system in a solid state lighting panel, the method comprising:
- receiving, in a microcontroller, a color management signal corresponding to a color characteristic of the solid state lighting panel;
- analyzing the color management signal relative to a current color management value that corresponds to a current color characteristic;
- and
- setting a control system mode responsive to analyzing the color management signal.
