Claim 13:
14. An Illumination apparatus configured to illuminate an operating region, the apparatus comprising:
at least one light assembly comprising at least one illumination source configured to selectively direct at least one light emission in a portion of the operating region;
at least one imager configured to capture image data in a field of view in the operating region;
a controller in communication with the light assembly and the imager, wherein the controller is configured to:
process image data captured in the field of view;
identify a plurality of objects detected in the image data based on an object library and access object information for the plurality of objects, wherein the object data identifies the plurality of objects as associated objects preapproved for use in the operating region;
compare the identified objects to the associated objects identified in the object information;
based on the comparison, identify an unexpected object in the library that is not identified as preapproved based on the object data; and
in response to the identification of the unexpected object, illuminate the unexpected object with the at least one light emission, wherein the at least one illumination source comprises a plurality of illumination sources configured to illuminate objects in the operating region in a first emission having first color and second emission having a second color, wherein the first emission is projected into the operating region and illuminates a target area and the second emission is directed to and illuminates the unexpected object.
