2. 3-way lamp - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3-way_lamp

   A 3-way lamp, also known as a tri-light, is a lamp that uses a 3-way light bulb to produce three levels of light in a low-medium-high configuration. A 3-way lamp requires a 3-way bulb and socket, and a 3-way switch. In 3-way incandescent light bulbs, each of the filaments operates at full voltage. Lamp bulbs with dual carbon filaments were ...

3. Intelligent lighting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligent_lighting

   In 1969, Jules Fisher, from Casa Mañana area theatre in Texas saw the invention and use of 12 PAR 64 lanterns with 120 W, 12 V lamps fitted, 360 degrees of pan and 270 degrees of tilt, a standard that lasted until the 1990s. This lamp was also known as the 'Mac-Spot' [1] In Bristol in 1968, progress was also being made, mainly for use in live ...

4. Lighting control system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lighting_control_system

   For dimmable fluorescent lamps (where it operates instead at 1-10 V, where 1 V is minimum and 0 V is off) the system is being replaced by DSI, which itself is in the process of being replaced by DALI. Examples for digital lighting control systems are: DALI based system. DSI based system; KNX based systems; Those are all wired lighting control ...

5. Dimmer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimmer

   A common dual dimmer module used in stage lighting A dimmer. A dimmer is a device connected to a light fixture and used to lower the brightness of the light.By changing the voltage waveform applied to the lamp, it is possible to lower the intensity of the light output.

6. Flicker (light) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flicker_(light)

   In visual perception, flicker is a human-visible change in luminance of an illuminated surface or light source which can be due to fluctuations of the light source itself, or due to external causes such as due to rapid fluctuations in the voltage of the power supply (power-line flicker) or incompatibility with an external dimmer.

7. Touch-sensitive lamp - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Touch-sensitive_lamp

   Video demonstrating the operation of a touch-sensitive lamp. A touch-sensitive lamp is a combination of a lamp and a touch switch. They act on the principle of body capacitance, activated by human touch rather than a flip, push-button, or other mechanical switch. They are popular as desk and nightstand lamps. Touch-sensitive lamp switches may ...

8. Philips Hue - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philips_Hue

   The Hue Bridge is the central controller of the lighting system which allows the bulbs to "communicate" with Apple HomeKit [5] and the app. In 2016, Philips released a new square shaped v2 bridge with increased memory and processor speed which replaced the round v1 bridge. The first-generation bridge received a final software update in April ...

9. Multifaceted reflector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multifaceted_reflector

   These lamps use a bi-pin connector for power: 12-volt MR11 bulbs usually use a GU4 base, and 12-volt MR16 bulbs usually use a GU5.3 base. The common 12-volt MR16 lamps, therefore, require a ferromagnetic or electronic transformer —sometimes misnamed as a ballast —to convert the 120- or 230-volt mains voltage to the extra-low voltage ...
