Abstract
An artificial light system that emulates daylight. The system includes at least one light engine, a light diffuser and a controller that is configured to generate light engine control signals based upon geographic location data. The light engine control signals are used to tune at least one of intensity, color temperature and directionality.
Claims11
An artificial light system configured for daylight emulation, comprising:
- at least one light engine having a plurality of independent light spectra;
- a light diffuser positioned in the artificial light system such that light from the light engine is directed through said light diffuser;
- and
- a controller that is communicatively coupled to the light engine;
- wherein the controller is configured to calculate light engine control signals based upon data representative of a geographic location and to communicate the light engine control signals to the light engine;
- wherein said control signals are configured to cause the light engine to tune at least one of light intensity, color temperature and light directionality such that the light engine generates a daylight quality spectrum representative of daylight associated with the geographic location.
