ILLUMINATION SOURCE AND METHOD
An illumination source and a method therefor. A light source includes a light circuit (204) configured to process light and direct light, and a lighting element (215) optically coupled to the light circuit to provide multiple colors of light. The light circuit propagates light using light guides (21...

| description | An illumination source and a method therefor. A light source includes a light circuit (204) configured to process light and direct light, and a lighting element (215) optically coupled to the light circuit to provide multiple colors of light. The light circuit propagates light using light guides (210-214). The use of light guides eliminates the use of free space optical elements, enabling the creation of more compact light sources. Furthermore, the use of light guides may enable the creation of light sources with fewer mechanical restrictions, thereby making the light sources potentially more reliable and less expensive.
L'invention concerne une source d'éclairage et un procédé connexe. Une source de lumière comprend un circuit de lumière (204) configuré pour traiter de la lumière et diriger de la lumière, et un élément éclairant (215) couplé optiquement au circuit de lumière pour fournir de multiples couleurs de lumière. Le circuit de lumière fait propager la lumière en utilisant des guides de lumière (210 à 214). L'utilisation de guides de lumière élimine l'utilisation d'éléments optiques d'espace libre, permettant la création de sources de lumière plus compactes. De plus, l'utilisation de guides de lumière peut permettre la création de sources de lumière avec un plus petit nombre de restrictions mécaniques, rendant ainsi les sources de lumière potentiellement plus fiables et moins coûteuses. |
