A mixed architecture light curtain system comprises a mix of flexibly and rigidly interconnected light curtain segments. For example, a number of light curtain segments may be rigidly interconnected in series at desired connection angles using one or more types of rigid connectors to form a set of rigidly connected segments. Another set of rigidly connected segments may be flexibly connected to this first set, or one or more individual segments may be flexibly connected in series with this first set. In general, a series of interconnected segments may be formed in any desired combination of rigidly and flexibly connected segments. In any such combination, differing types of rigid and flexible connectors may be used, such that rigidly and flexibly interconnected segments may be fixed at essentially any desired angle, offset, or relative spacing, allowing the mixed architecture light curtain to conform to complex and even disjointed protection zone shapes.
