Abstract:
1. A method of controlling an output of a light fixture, the light fixture including a plurality of light sources, the method comprising: receiving a first set of input data; retrieving a second set of data from a memory, the second set of data having been stored prior to receiving the first set of input data; determining a difference between the first set of input data and the second set of data; setting a slew time based on the determined difference between the first set of input data and the second set of data, the slew time corresponding to an amount of time the output of the light fixture is to take to transition from a present output of the light fixture to a new output of the light fixture; determining an output intensity value for each of the plurality of light sources; and independently driving each of the plurality of light sources toward the determined output intensity value for each of the plurality of light sources at a rate that is based on the slew time.
