Photoluminescent dynamic lighting
A lighting apparatus is disclosed. The lighting apparatus comprises a circuit configured to be disposed in a panel defining a cavity forming an opening. The circuit comprises a light source in communication with a controller and configured to emit a first emission. A photoluminescent portion is disposed proximate the light source and is configured to convert at least a portion of the first emission to a second emission. The second emission is output from the cavity to provide ambient light.
