Cluster Linear Cup Optics

Abstract

An illumination module and illumination systems incorporating such modules are provided. The illumination systems include a housing body that secures one or more arrays of illumination modules, with each array of illumination modules comprising one or more individual illumination modules. Specifically, each illumination module can include: a retaining cup having a first end, a second end, and a sidewall extending from the first end to the second end, where the second end of the retaining cup defines an exit aperture of the illumination module; a light source disposed on a portion of a first surface of a light source board, wherein the portion of the first surface of the light source board covers the first end of the retaining cup; and a total internal reflection (TIR) optical device having an optical film, the TIR optical device being disposed within the retaining cup and abutting the light source.
