Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for controlling the light output of a plurality of light sources according to the preamble of claim 1 and a corresponding method thereof.
- a device for controlling the light output of a plurality of light sources according to the preamble of claim 1 and a corresponding method thereof With the device according to the invention and the method according to the invention, in particular a possibility for effective and accurate color control for LED lights is provided.
- the device and the method basically work according to the principle of a so-called feed-back loop.
- LEDs or general semiconductor light-emitting elements are increasingly being used in lighting technology recently, since the achievable with such light sources achievements are sufficiently high even for larger lighting applications. LEDs have the advantage of higher efficiency over other types of light sources. Furthermore, the power and thus the brightness of a LED can be adjusted relatively easily, so that light can be generated in almost any hue by an appropriate mixture of different colors.
- the brightness information about the currently active light source can then be obtained via the sensor, with a corresponding activation of the LEDs overall being carried out on the basis of this information.
- the individual measuring periods are preferably dimensioned so short that the regular operation of the lamp is influenced as little as possible.
- the present invention is therefore based on the object to open up a novel possibility for driving LED lights, in which measurements made during operation or calibrations of the individual light sources for a viewer are not or at least significantly less noticeable.
- the object is achieved by a device for emitting light, which has the features of claim 1, and by a method for controlling the light emission according to claim 11.
- Advantageous developments of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims.
- the solution according to the invention is again based on the already known idea of controlling the light sources during operation in recurring calibration phases in such a way that the light emitted by the light sources is detected and evaluated in a sequence of individual measurement periods.
- the light sources to be evaluated are each activated separately in the individual measuring periods, it is provided in the procedure according to the invention that light from several light sources is detected simultaneously in at least one of the measuring periods.
- the fact that the light sources are no longer individually activated but that the mixed light emitted by the light sources is also used at least in part means that the temporary deviations in the light output are much more difficult to discern for a viewer of the luminaire.
- the light emitted in comparison with the regular operation is changed relatively slightly in the calibration phase, although, despite all, an exact determination of the light intensity of the individual light sources is made possible. Accordingly, the procedure according to the invention in turn leads to the fact that the color control can be performed in a reliable manner, but for this less or not at all must be intervened in the ongoing operation of the lamp.
- the measurements for calibration can thus be performed permanently during normal operation of the luminaire, without this being associated with an impairment of the light output in the desired manner.
- the invention thus proposes a device for emitting light, which has at least three light sources, means for supplying energy to the light sources, a sensor for detecting the light emitted by the light sources in their entirety, and a control unit for controlling the means for supplying energy, the control unit being designed for this purpose in a calibration phase, to control the means for supplying energy in such a way that the light emitted by the light sources is detected by the sensor in a sequence of measuring periods, and to calculate the brightness of each individual light source on the basis of the information obtained from the sensor.
- the light detected by the sensor originates from a plurality of the light sources in at least one measurement period.
- a method for controlling the light output of at least three light sources is proposed, wherein during a calibration phase in a sequence of measurement periods, the light emitted by the light sources detected and calculated based on the information obtained in the measurement periods, the brightness of each individual light source, and wherein the method according to the invention is characterized in that in at least one of the measurement periods the detected light originates from a plurality of the light sources.
- the various light sources in the calibration phase there are different possibilities, which are the subject of the dependent claims.
- the light sources are controlled such that in each case exactly one light source is deactivated during a measurement period.
- This procedure leads to a particularly low influence or modification of the emitted light in comparison to a regular operation of the lamp, although, however, despite all the light intensity of each individual light source can be determined very accurately.
- the light intensity of the light source can be deduced individually from the signals detected in the individual measurement periods.
- the measuring periods each have the same duration.
- the length of the measurement periods can be adjusted in a suitable manner. This procedure is particularly suitable when the brightness control of the light sources takes place in that they are operated with pulse-width-modulated (PWM) signals.
- PWM pulse-width-modulated
- the duration of the measuring periods is in each case matched to the differences between the respective pulse widths for the light sources, which ultimately means that the brightness of the individual light sources can be determined during ongoing operation, without there being a deviation in the control during the calibration phase. This means that no flickering or intensity or color changes occur during calibration.
- the light sources of the device according to the invention are preferably formed by light-emitting semiconductor elements or LEDs. It can of course also be provided that in each case a single light source is represented by a plurality of LEDs that emit light of the same color.
- the control unit After, according to the procedure of the invention, the brightness was determined for each individual light source, then a change in the intensity, the Aging is due to be compensated by the control unit.
- the control unit is preferably connected to storage means or has storage means in which reference values for the brightness of the respective light source are stored. Based on a comparison between the brightness values determined in the calibration phase and the reference values, the currents supplied to the light sources can then be adjusted during operation in order to compensate for corresponding deviations.
- FIG. 1 shows the schematic expansion of an embodiment of a device according to the invention for emitting light
- the device shown in Fig. 1 and generally provided with the reference numeral 1 for light emission initially has three light sources 2 X to 2 3 , which for emitting light in the colors red (L R ), green (L G ) and blue (L B ) are formed.
- the light sources 2i to 2 3 can each be set independently in their brightness, which opens the possibility to provide mixed light of almost any hue and in a desired intensity.
- the optical elements required for mixing the light are not shown for the sake of simplicity of illustration, but are already known from the prior art.
- the independent control of the light sources 2i to 2 3 is achieved by three driver circuits 3i to 33, which supply their respective associated light source 2i to 2 3 with a corresponding power.
- the control of the light sources 2 ⁇ to 2 3 by the driver circuits 3i to 3 3 takes place in accordance with the driver circuits 3i to 3 3 supplied control signals, which are generated by a control unit 4 of the device for emitting light.
- the control of the light sources 2 ⁇ to 2 3 by the driver circuits 3i to 3 3 to adjust their brightness can be done in different ways.
- Both methods described above are particularly suitable for the case that the light sources 2 ⁇ to 2 3 are formed by LEDs, each light source can also be formed in each case from a number of multiple LEDs of the same color.
- a color control for the light emitted from the light sources 2i to 2 3 mixed light make is detected the light emitted from the light sources 2i to 2 3 Light in its entirety from a sensor 5, for example.
- a suitable control of the light sources 2i to 2 3 is performed in a calibration phase, in which case the brightness for the individual light sources 2i to 2 3 is calculated by the control unit 4 from the signals S delivered by the sensor 5 ,
- the information obtained here is compared with reference values which are stored in a memory 6.
- the memory 6 can either be connected to the control unit 4 or be part of the control unit 4.
- a corresponding modification of the control of the light sources 2 ⁇ to 2 3 can then be made in order to compensate for deviations in the light intensity of the individual light sources that occur over time, for example due to signs of aging.
- FIG. 2 shows a first exemplary embodiment of the procedure according to the invention, wherein the time profile of the signals transmitted by the sensor 5 to the control unit 4 is shown. It should first be pointed out once again that the sensor 5 does not differentiate according to the colors of the light emitted by the light sources but only detects the total brightness. During normal operation, the sensor thus detects a signal S which represents the sum of the brightness values L1, L2 and L3 of the three light sources.
- the light sources are now driven in successive measurement periods such that one of the three light sources is selectively deactivated in each case.
- the third light source is deactivated, in a second measuring period the second light source and in a third measuring period the first light source.
- the signals detected by the sensor during these three measurement periods are then composed as follows:
- L ⁇ (S ⁇ + S2 - S3) / 2
- L2 ⁇ S ⁇ - S2 + S3) / 2
- L3 (-S ⁇ + S2 + S3) / 2
- the individual brightness information L1, L2 and L3 obtained in this way are then compared by the control unit with the reference values stored in the memory.
- the current or power for each of the three light sources can then be adjusted in a corresponding manner to correspond to the respective reference value, whereby aging phenomena are compensated.
- completion of the calibration phase is then transferred back to a conventional operation.
- the procedure described above is characterized in that in each of the three measuring periods only one single light source is deactivated or the sensor evaluates a mixed light instead of a single color. This has the consequence that in the individual measurement periods compared to the light signal during normal operation significantly lower deviations occur, as would be the case if only a single light source would be activated. The deviations in the light emitted by the entire device relative to the normal operation are correspondingly much less perceptible to an observer. This also brings, for example, the advantage that the measurement periods are relatively long can be, without this effect would be recognizable to a viewer.
- the accuracy in determining the individual light levels is significantly increased, in particular because there is no risk that due to short-term on and off effects that can lead to voltage spikes, distortions in the measurement result.
- the measurements during the calibration phase can be carried out without problems in the range of about 100 Hz, which of course would also be possible to make measurements in the KHz range.
- FIG. 3 A variant of the procedure explained with reference to FIG. 2 is shown in FIG. 3 and consists in the fact that the light sources are deactivated one after the other in the three measurement periods of the calibration phase, so that the following measurement signals result:
- control unit can easily deduce the individual brightness since now the following applies:
- this method can be further optimized by varying the order in which the light sources are deactivated in the individual measuring periods in successive calibration phases. In this way, the repetitive emergence of similar light or color sequences is avoided, wherein such a variation of the sequence could also be used in the method according to FIG. 2.
- FIG. 4 A further possibility to supplement the method illustrated in FIG. 3 is shown in FIG. 4.
- the LEDs are not completely deactivated during the individual measuring periods but - as indicated schematically - dimmed down to a level which is below a perceptible by the sensor threshold.
- the contribution of this light source to the sensor signal is negligible in this case, which is why the previously mentioned equations still apply and, in turn, the intensity of each individual light source can be determined.
- the sensitivity of the human eye is relatively high at low brightness values, the change in intensity is even lower for a viewer compared to the conventional operation, which is why this measure-which, of course, could also be used in the method according to FIG. 2-additionally contributes to this To avoid interference by calibrating the light sources.
- the level below a threshold that can be dimmed during the calibration phase may also be above the threshold perceivable by the sensor.
- the calibration phase may include at least one measurement period in which the LEDs are not deactivated or not completely activated in the sense of the previous calibration steps, but at which at least one LED, several LEDs or even all LEDs are dimmed down to the level below a threshold value.
- the measurement of this at least one measurement period can be used as calibration information in order to evaluate the information obtained during the calibration phase, taking into account the knowledge of the levels of the LED below a threshold, in such a way that the information obtained is corrected for this calibration information during the further measurement phases.
- the LED or the optics of the LED itself or the optics of the LED light designed so that only at a certain dimming level (brightness value of the LED) light is emitted to the environment and the sensor and thus the be defined for the sensor perceptible threshold.
- the level below a threshold value can thus also be below the threshold perceptible by the sensor,
- the sensor may also have a defined filter defining the threshold for visibility.
- This threshold value can have different values or the same value for different wavelengths.
- the threshold may be adjustable, for example, depending on the calibration information.
- the light signals generated during normal operation can also be used to determine the intensities L1, L2 and L3 of the individual light sources. This is possible because the pulse widths for the individual light sources known (da predetermined by the control unit) and from this the time intervals ⁇ tl, ⁇ t2 and ⁇ t3 can be determined.
- the method just described can also be modified in such a way that the times at which the LEDs operated in PWM mode are activated are selected differently. For different dimming levels then different start and stop times can be used, for example. Based on a table, to cause no regular intensity peaks. This measure in turn helps to reduce the externally noticeable effects when calibrating the light sources.
- the method according to the invention is fundamentally applicable to devices for emitting light which have at least three light sources which can be controlled independently of one another, in particular LEDs. In the event that more than three light sources are used, the method can be easily extended accordingly. The resulting equations for determining the respective individual light intensities would then increase correspondingly, although in spite of everything a clear determination of the individual light intensities for each light source is possible. It is not mandatory here either required that the different light sources emit light of different colors. The only prerequisite for carrying out the method according to the invention is that at least two different colors are provided by the light source.
- the above-described measures are used in particular to compensate for deviations in the intensities of the individual light sources, which are due to aging phenomena. Furthermore, in order to be able to take account of manufacturing tolerances in the manufacture of the LEDs, it can additionally be provided that the LEDs are measured once after assembly with the aid of a suitable color sensor and exactly determined for each light source, in which strength and color light emitted from the corresponding LEDs. This information can then be used during later operation to determine how much the light sources must be driven to produce light of a desired mixed color. This measure thus additionally contributes to ensuring that ultimately a mixed light is generated which lies exactly at the desired color location.
- the present invention provides a possibility to readjust light sources during the normal operation of an LED light, without causing intensity changes in the emitted light, which are clearly perceptible to a viewer.
- the lighting properties of the device are significantly improved in this way.
