ILLUMINATION SYSTEM

摘要

An illumination system is provided. The illumination system comprises an array of light emitting elements, an array of directional optical elements and a light deflecting means arranged to provide a fan of light cones. A position detector senses the retroreflection from an observer's eyes and a control system reduces the intensity of light directed towards the retroreflection region. Such a system achieves glare reduction for a line-of-sight illumination apparatus.

1. An illumination system, comprising:
an illumination apparatus arranged to output illumination in a form comprising a plurality of light cones in different directions; a sensor configured to detect the output illumination that is reflected from one or more facial features; and a control apparatus configured to determine a one of the plurality of light cones that the detected reflected illumination was output from; the control apparatus configured to vary an intensity of the illumination output in the one of the plurality of light cones that was determined as being the light cone of the plurality of light cones in which the detected reflected illumination was output.
