Patent ID: 7213947

Claim:
A multiple output illumination system comprising: a first reflector having a first optical axis and a first and second focal points substantially on said first optical axis; a second reflector having a second optical axis and a third and fourth focal points substantially on said second optical axis, said third focal point being substantially proximate to said first focal point and said fourth focal point being substantially distal from said second focal point; a source of electromagnetic radiation substantially proximate to said first or said third focal points to produce first rays of radiation that are reflected substantially by said first reflector and converge substantially at said second focal point and to produce second rays of radiation that are reflected substantially by said second reflector and converge substantially at said fourth focal point; a first light pipe having a first input end substantially proximate to said second focal point to be illuminated with at least a portion of said first rays of radiation; and a second light pipe having a second input end substantially proximate to said fourth focal point to be illuminated with at least a portion of said second rays of radiation.
