Light fixture and method for operating said light fixture
View Patent ↗A light fixture may include a casing and a support assembly configured to support and move the casing. The light fixture may include a light source assembly housed inside the casing and configured to generate visible light radiation of different colours. The light fixture may further include a control device configured to control the light source assembly based on the position or the movement of the casing or based on a parameter correlated to the position or the movement of the casing.
1. A light fixture comprising:
a casing;
a support assembly configured to support and move the casing and to enable the casing to rotate about a first axis and about a second axis, which is orthogonal to the first axis;
at least one light source assembly housed inside the casing and configured to generate visible light beams of different colors;
a control device configured to control the position of the casing via the adjustment of the support assembly and to control the color of the beam emitted by the light source assembly based on the position or the movement signals of the support assembly.
2. The light fixture according to claim 1 , wherein the light source assembly comprises at least two light sources configured to generate visible light radiation of different colors.
3. The light fixture according to claim 1 , wherein the support assembly comprises a base and a fork; wherein the fork is coupled to the base in a rotatable manner about the first axis; and wherein the fork is configured to support the casing in a rotatable manner about the second axis.
4. The light fixture according to claim 1 , wherein the control device is configured to control at least one of the at least two light sources of the light source assembly based on the position or the movement of the casing or based on a parameter correlated to the position or the movement of the casing.
5. The light fixture according to claim 4 , wherein the control device is configured to control the activation of each light source of the at least two light sources.
6. The light fixture according to claim 4 , wherein the control device is configured to control the intensity of the light radiation emitted by each light source of the at least two light sources.
7. The light fixture according to claim 1 , wherein the control device is configured to be remotely managed.
8. The light fixture according to claim 1 , wherein the casing is configured to emit a single light beam from the visible light beams of different colors generated from the at least one light source assembly.
9. A method for operating a light fixture; wherein the light fixture is provided with a casing, with a support assembly configured to support the casing and to enable the casing to rotate about a first axis and about a second axis, which is orthogonal to the first axis, of at least one light source assembly housed inside the casing and configured to generate visible light beams of different colors; wherein the method comprises:
controlling the movement of the casing via the adjustment of the support assembly; and
controlling the color of the beam emitted by the light source assembly based on the position or the movement signals of the support assembly.
10. The method according to claim 9 , wherein the light source assembly comprises at least two light sources configured to generate visible light radiation of different colors; wherein controlling the light source assembly comprises controlling at least one light source of the at least two light sources based on the position or the movement of the casing or based on a parameter correlated to the position or the movement of the casing.
11. The method according to claim 10 , wherein controlling at least one light source of the at least two light sources comprises controlling the activation of each light source.
12. The method according to claim 10 , wherein controlling at least one light source of the at least two light sources comprises controlling the intensity of the light radiation emitted by each light source.
13. A computer program configured to perform the steps of the method as claimed in claim 9 .
14. A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform the method as claimed in claim 9 .
15. The method according to claim 9 , wherein the casing is configured to emit a single light beam from the visible light beams of different colors generated from the at least one light source assembly.
