The illuminator description is presented as a scientific paper, but some additional comments are used to aid the reader's understanding.
All variables are in bold .
The figures are not a uniform size. This problem is being worked on. We report on tailored reflector design methods that allow the placement of general illumination patterns onto a target plane. Use of a new integral design method based on the edge-ray principle of nonimaging optics gives much more compact reflector shapes by eliminating the need for a gap between the source and reflector profile. In addition, the reflectivity of the reflector is incorporated as a design parameter.
