A round peg is not the optimal shape for a rectangular hole. This concept also applies to illumination. The projected beam pattern and target shape should match for efficiency and performance. Current lamps and luminaires tend to project conical or omni-directional only beam patterns, resulting in light waste, glare, sky-glow and non-uniformity. Consumers pay the consequences and hence manufacturers are now receiving pressure for "Green Environmentally Friendly" artificial lighting products.

OMNILUX Produces Non-Conical Beam Patterns

OMNILUX can combine with an LED or traditional lamp, to efficiently project a high C.U.; square, rectange, curve or other shape beam patterns. OMNILUX does not use framing or other energy wasting techniques. The graphic below demonstrates traditional optics on the left and OMNILUX resulting beam patterns on the right side.

Demonstrated below is a curved beam pattern generated with a $10 laser pointer inputed to the OMNILUX resonant optical system. This unique approach projects light as a function of time, analogous to an analog (lens and reflectors) - to - digital (OMNILUX) manipulation of light . OMNILUX controllably varys “THE SHAPE OF LIGHT” yeilding ture efficiency and efficacy.  The resulting OMNILUX beam pattern is both the 'right shape" and adjustable from a narrow spot to a wide projection angle while maintaining high uniformity. Traditional optics are expensive and limited in their ability to produce efficient non-conical or adjustable beam patterns.

OMNILUX Controllably Distributes Light Across a Beam Pattern

OMNILUX also enables controllably modulating light intensity as a function of position across the beam pattern; for uniformity and to achieve the proper intensity-vs.-position profile and a reduced lamp size.

One such example is a rectangular beam with a bat-wing light intensity profile which is for ideal exterior roadway and pathway illumination. Combining OMNILUX with an MR-11 incandescent lamp (below) reshapes the conical beam into a rectangular beam with bat-winged distribution. Note the high degree of uniformity and absence of optical cancellation effects. The result is fewer lower wattage lamps spread farther apart to illuminate long stretches of path.
