More Information
Summary:Disclosed is an example of a system for selectively influencing the circadian system of a human being, or other human stimulus factor, while simultaneously making minimal shifts to a specified operational parameter of the light source, such as correlated color temperature (CCT), color rendering index, look on a fixture, net lumen output, or a power consumption requirement. An example involves image processing to produce drive signals for emitters of a source array in a luminaire and an associated illumination control function to continuously meet a specific melanopic lux or circadian stimulus value, while adjusting/optimizing one or more other operational parameters of the source emitter outputs to achieve or maintain the operational parameter, such as light output level or power consumption, to within some acceptable degree of tolerance.
